NO. A hernia is not a lump on a testicle. That could be a cyst or a growth, including cancerous tissue. A hernia is when the abdominal cavity wall fails and part of the intestines penetrates outside the cavity wall--this would be a bulge, usually at the area around the penis base. A bulge into the scrotum could be a hernia, but the testicles would be separate from it.

I know for sure a hernia can be mistaken for a lump on a testicle, because I had an inguenal hernia, and it really freaked me out when I discovered it.
Time to get a physical.

By who? You or a physician?
A physician is going to know the different.
