Question Title: Testicle lump

----------------------------------------------------------

Dear Rand;
Thanks for your question. I agree with Doug’s answer. I believe sometimes normal structures like the lateral sulcus of the testes or epididymis can be felt on physical exam. The lateral sulcus is a small ridge where the epididymis attaches to the testicle. I would certainly ask your urologist for his opinion.
More individualized care is available at the Henry Ford Hospital and its urban campuses by calling (1 800 653 6568). We can also arrange local accommodations through this number if this is your need. Please bring any physicians’ notes and lab test results that you may be able to obtain. These will help us greatly.
