does a lump mean it is cancer

im 14 about to be 15 and i have 2 bumps so i came here.

Hi i want to know what if there is a lump on the right testicle it is kind small, it is movable side to side,and it doesn't hurt

I am a 36 year old male and this evening found a lump on my right testicle. it is not painful but feels like it is about the size of a marble. It isn't round though, more like pyramid shaped. It definitely is not a part of my testicle and has me concerned. Should I consult with a urologist about it or is a GP qualified to make a diagnosis?

I am a 36 year old male and I have a large ball that is over 2 times bigger than my testicles in my scrotum that I first felt 5 days ago.  I recently had a prostate exam, so this has added to my concern that this is testicular cancer.  But it might also be an inguinal hernia, or an epididymis cyst, or a hydrocele.  This "third ball" doesn't hurt, but it is very strange.  

I have that too except i am only 13
ill be 14 in a month though

PLEASE respond! I have this problem on my right testicle. The nurse did the usual check-up and felt them for lumps as usual, but I think she might've missed this lump. At the time, it was pretty small. It still is, but I feel like it's getting bigger slowly. My worst fear is cancer. The lump itself is situated on the testicle itself, just right of the tubular thingies. I am only 14, but I am worried out of my mind. I never thought of this happening, and I am scared to death. Please respond to this as soon as possible! Thanks in advance! ~Jason

i have a lump on my left testicle, id say its marble sized maybe a little bigger or smaller. Its right on top of my epididymis, ive had it for quite some time and had it checked by a doctor a few years back, but i feel like he missed it and at the time i was only 12 so you can imagine how awkward it was, is there any kind of "self test" i can do to determine if i should go to a doctor? im 18 now.

also it is quite hard, it is not very "squishy" its more or less the same density as my testicles.

i have a lump in my scrotum its at the top next to my penis and it seems to come and go away quickly and it can be painful but it is not consistant

I have l lump that is not on the ball but about 1cm away from the ball if I squeeze it it hurts and I can feel like a vain or something connecting it to my left ball the lump is about 1cm squared in size. any info as what it could be would help

I have a bump that I not attached to the testicle but seems to be attached to the tubes above my right test. I'm only 14 I have an appointment made but I'm worried about it being cancer

I am very worried about my husband we noticed tonight he has swelling in his left testicle and we found two small lumps he said he also is in pain its to painful to examine it and we are very worried due to not having insurance is this something he should go to the hospital for or should we get on the waiting list for free clinic hes 27 years old and we are very stressed out now please help us figure out how we should handle this  thank u for ur time

I feel a hard lump in my right ball sack that is not attached to anything. It is a bit less than 1 cm on all axis. I'm only 13. Can it be a cancer?

Hi
The best thing to do is talk to your parents about the lump and get them to make you an appointment to see your doctor.
It could just be a cyst or something like that.
Since your only 13 and it's not attached to your testicle it could be nothing to worry about.
Seeing your doctor is the only way to find out what it is, you will get a proper diagnoses based on examining you and tests and that is what you need.
Getting it checked by your doctor will put your mind at ease and you will know what it is for sure.
It hopefully is nothing to worry about but the only way to know for sure is by seeing your doctor.
I know it's difficult to talk about things like this with parents but you really should so you can get it checked out properly.
It is better to get checked as soon as you can so please ask them to make you a doctors appointment to get it checked.

What does it mean when I have a small lump on my testicles? Will I be ok?
