Hi everyone,

I am 20 years old. 3 months ago I visited the GP because of a hard lump I found on one of my testicles, about 1-2 mm in diameter on the side of the testicle. GP said it was nothing 'as it is too small' and said 'why are you feeling your testicles anyway' but I am still worried as it seems to be slightly bigger now. He seemed really dismissive about it so I'm afraid to go again. I've just gone back to university and this lump is making me so anxious I can't concentrate on my studies. My parents don't know and I don't want to worry them unless I have a diagnosis of what this lump is. Should I get it checked again or go get a private scan somewhere? Is it possible that this is just a normal growth?
