If a suspicious lump is detected in one of both of your testes (i.e., testicles), or if you have other symptoms of testicular cancer, you should see your doctor. He or she should perform a physical examination. Your doctor may also do an ultrasound examination of your testicle(s) and take a blood sample to run a series of blood tests, which can confirm whether the lump is cancerous or not.
A benign (non-cancerous) tumor may also cause a lump on a testicle. In most cases, a benign tumor can be removed in a surgery.
