    A lump at the root of the testicle may be caused by friction, dermatitis, orchitis, etc., and should be treated symptomatically according to the cause.

    1. Friction

    Friction through clothing may cause local irritation to the patient's testicles, which can easily lead to swelling and lumps on the skin and other adverse symptoms. It can be relieved by wearing pure cotton clothes, which is conducive to digestion and body recovery.

    2. Dermatitis

    It will cause local skin inflammation, accompanied by redness, swelling and pain. In severe cases, it may cause symptoms of lumps and protrusions. Drugs such as erythromycin ointment and mupirocin ointment can be used under the guidance of a doctor.

    3. Orchitis

    It will cause edema and bleeding in the testicular area, and may also cause symptoms such as swelling and lumps at the local root. You can use levofloxacin hydrochloride capsules, ofloxacin capsules, amoxicillin capsules and other drugs as directed by your doctor.

    In addition to the above reasons, it may also be the cause of subcutaneous cysts, which requires timely treatment at the hospital.
