if it is a lump on the outside of the inner bit it ia likely to be nothing more than a benign cyst.Cancerous growths tend to be hard to find just using touch,and can only be diagnosed properly with ultrasound,but I am sure he has had that done already,You must try to get him to go to his GP,even if it is benign it`s surly better to know for sure than worry about it.
A very good friend of ours died a few years ago from bowel cancer,,she knew she had it but refused to do anything about it,it killed her in a matter of months but she said she was happy with dying.
Get him to go to the doctor.It`s not embarrasing for the doctor or the ultrasound department.It is very important..

If your Husbands has played any sports it could be a sports herinua and any other type of hurenas which could be where his testicles could grow a lump, and it hurts to lay a certin way and to walk or even get out of bed. You should take him to a doctor and have them look at them. They do a non-painful procdure where they ask him to cough while your doctor would feel around your testicles but herinuas. It dose not take that long. They dont hurt as bad but they do hurt just tell your husband to take his time be careful get checked out and just try not to do to many strainous things to hurt him self cause it could be very simple things that could hurt him so just be careful.

A hernia does no longer reason a lump on his testicle. whether, a lump must be symptom on testicular maximum cancers that may unfold to different organs and be probably deadly.. He desires to verify a doctor ASAP.

Go to a good Dr.
Dr.'s do make mistakes and the problem is nothing to play around with
I really don't think your answer is here
We are all different and ever though some one may have had the same thing your husband may have some totally different
Always get a second opinion

He really does need to go back to the doctors, I know he might be emabarassed particularly as nothing was discovered last time, but that holds no guarantee for the future, and although it's probably something minor - he really does need to get it checked out again to dispose of any worry which you obviously both have.

Men are very wierd about this, but I would say it is your duty to send him to another doctor for a second opinion. It could be nothing much, or it can be something like cancer, god forbid. Talk to him and get him to go to another doctor, you should go with him, and he should explain the symptoms and the history to to doctor honestly, it is the doctors duty to help, investigate and to give a solution.
The best of luck to you

The epididymis is a small hood attached to the end of each testicle. If it gets infected, it is very painful (epididymitis).

It could be the symtoms of a strangulated testicle, or rupture, He realy needs to see a doc a.s.a.p and get it checked out.

I am sorry to say this but please take it in the manner it is meant - tell your husband that I said, he is a prat! GO AND GET IT CHECKED - NOW!!!!
Tell him to put his male pride on the backburner and get himself checked out.
A close friend of mine was exactly like this and refused to go back to his doctor - 6 weeks later he was in hospital having his danglies removed.

if it is just a cyst there is nothing to worry about
there could be a new cyst growing
have it checked out though, if it has increased in size over the years it could be cancerous
ask him if he's done any thing to strain is groin, maybe there is a cause of the pain and he's too embarrassed to say
