My partner has had a lump on his pubic area for at least the last 10 years (he says possibly more, he doesn't remember a time not having it.) He's 21, a smoker and uses Marujana regularly. He's noticed over the last week it's become more noticeable and more uncomfortable which prompted him to have a Dr appointment today. She said it's positive that he's had it for such a long time but has referred him for bloods and an ultrasound- she says this is because the lump is hard and does not move. The lump is around the size of a 5p piece. He gets hot at night however the GP put that down to the fact we both radiate a lot of heat whilst we're sleeping, we both wake up quite hot. He's not have any other symptoms and is generally well. 

I'm losing sleep over this- the ultrasound might not be for 4 weeks. I'm so desperate for answers but trying to stay positive. I've found myself googling for hours trying to convince myself it isn't anything sinister. Has anyone else has a similar experience?
