What Causes Two Hard Pebble Like Structures On Top Of Testicle?

Hello,



I am a 27 year old male. I have two hard pebble like structures attached to the top of my right testicle. They are not directly attached, but appear to be attached to a vein and I am able to move them around. There is no pain unless I squeezed hard. Thank You.

Hello
Thanks for query.
The freely mobile pebble like structures on the top of the Rt testicle are most likely to be Spermatocele .

However it needs to be confirmed by clinical examination by a qualified General surgeon or Urologist and by Ultrasound Scanning of Scrotum.

These are benign cyst that occur due to partial obstruction to the flow of sperms from Epididymis into Vas difference .

Spermatocele does need any active intervention unless it increases in size or becomes painful.
