A member asked:
Why does a testicle become hard after epidymorchitis and why does the us still show it's normal despite this obvious hardness/ scarring? weird.

Need skill ...: How to palpate and discern the anatomical relationship between testis and epididymis requires special training and practice as most of urologists can. Remember: Not all trainees turn out to possess same professional capacity in detailing history, conducting physical exam, interpreting the findings of tests despite their earning diploma, license, & certificates; that is life reality.
