I have found a lump

I was in the shower and found a lump on my left testical that I don't think was there the day before it was bigger and red when I found it but now a couple hours on its shrinking a bit and isn't as red, I'm not in any pain what's so ever. Should I get it checked out or wait a week or so to see what happens? 

Thanks 

  • Hi James and welcome to the community.

    I'm sorry about the lump you've found but it's good to hear that it's started to get smaller. I hope it has continued to shrink in size since you made this post, and that it eventually disappears on it's own, but if it persists and you start to get worried, there's no harm in booking an appointment with your GP to get this checked out.

    We have many posts on the forum about testicle lumps so hopefully some of our members who have been in a similar position will offer their support and advice to you soon.

    Kind regards,
