Sai Singh, a 28-year-old software engineer...
Sai Singh, a 28-year-old software engineer and avid cyclist, had been experiencing a dull, persistent ache in his right testicle for three weeks. The pain would worsen after long bike rides or sitting at his desk for extended periods. Initially, he dismissed it as a strain, but when he felt a small, pea-sized lump on the back of the testicle, he grew deeply concerned. His primary care doctor referred him to a urologist. The urologist recommended a scrotal ultrasound to visualize the structures and rule out serious conditions like testicular cancer. During the ultrasound, Sai felt anxious but the technician was gentle and explained each step. The procedure was painless, involving cool gel and a transducer moved over the scrotum. The results showed it was a benign epididymal cyst and inflammation (epididymitis), not cancer. Recovery was immediate with no restrictions. Emotionally, Sai went from a state of silent terror, fearing the worst and avoiding the doctor, to immense relief and a commitment to paying closer attention to his health. He felt a weight lifted and was grateful for the clear diagnosis.
