    If it was an arm or a leg you probably wouldn't think twice about going to the doctors - this shouldn't be any different.
    It might be embarrasing, but they really have seen it all before.
    Get yerself down there and put your mind at rest.

    As Kentish says really.

    Chances are it's a simple epidimal cyst (a cyst on the tubes which carry your semen) but it could also be something worse.

    You shouldn't be too worried but is this really a part of your anatomy that you want to risk?

    See a doctor now, I had a lump on my penis and got it checked out and it was a lump. Yeah, I know its hard to go sometimes, but theyre not gonna tell you youve got a small knob and then laugh at you. Its no different to if you got a lump in your arm or chest.

    I was in your situation a couple of months back mate, and was really worriedx about going to see my G.P.. For me It turned out to be a cyst (caused by a foot happy friend) but it's better to be safe than sorry, if it is malignant it could spread.

    Dave or J.ME

    Get it checked out, at least so you have peace of mind. I had a lump on one of my balls and I left it for ages, due to embarrassment and fear, but when my girlfriend found out she made me book an emergency appointment at the docs. I asked for a male gp and he did his examination. Yes I was very embarrassed, and probably shaking at the knees, but I knew this was a day to day routine for the doc. My god he has seen much worse. Anyway he said it was probably just a cyst. He referred me to a local hospital for a ultra sound scan, but I ended up going private to speed things up (also due to telling my parents.....who gave me the money for BUPA!). That was embarrassing was extremely reassuring to know that everything was ok. Definently go to the docs. In the worse case scenario, its best that you go as early as possible to get it back to normal! So bite your lip and get your arse down to the docs! Good luck! <IMG SRC="rolleyes.gif" border="0" ALT="icon">

    I got a lump once and it turned out just to be a boil (bloody painful let me tell you <IMG SRC="mad.gif" border="0" ALT="icon"> <IMG SRC="frown.gif" border="0" ALT="icon"> ), but in general, if you do have a lump near, on or in your gems, don't dilly dally, GET YOUR ASS DOWN THE DOCTORS!!!!! <IMG SRC="tongue.gif" border="0" ALT="icon">
