small hard area on left testicle

So a few months ago i was experiencing some discomfort in my left testicle, went to a GP to get it checked out and he said that everything was fine and that it's most likely an infection. A few months later and i feel a hard area on the back of my left testicle which is smaller than a pea and only hurts a little when i touch it, but when i'm not there's no discomfort at all. My anxiety is making me worry a lot about this and I've booked another GP appointment but while I'm waiting I just wanted to ask for some information on what this could be.

Thank you

  • Hello MarcoBarco04

    I'm sorry to hear that you've recently found another lump on your testicle.

    You've done exactly the right thing in making an appointment to see your GP and hopefully, they will be able to give you some reassurance, just as they did previously. 

    Do mention to your GP about how anxious you've been feeling and hopefully they will be able to give you some advice and support to manage that as well. 

    Best wishes,
