Is epididymitis the same thing as an epididymal cyst?
I recently found a lump on my testicle. I went to the Dr who ordered an ultrasound. After getting the scans/images he said I had cyst on my epididymal tube. (Tube that connects to my testicle) They actually found a small cyst that I didn't even feel on my other testicle.
I've read that epididymitis is an infected tube in the testicles usually caused by infection.
I have no discharge, no pain while urinating, etc. My testicles don't ache. The cyst doesn't hurt but obviously when I found it and felt it it was sensitive from over touching it.
Would epididymitis be the same thing as an epididymal cyst?
Thank you.
