Please go and have it assessed by a physician ASAP.  No one on this website will be able to tell you FOR CERTAIN what it is.  

You can also post in the Testicular Cancer and Men's Health Forums.

Yeaa I have the same problem and its a bit scary. I've never had anything like this before near my nutsack. I noticed a few small bumps in the same area and two days passed and they got to the size of a pea and hardened up. It is near the testicles but not directly inside any help or suggestions

hi i also have a lump but mine is on the eppididymus, it turned out to be a eppididymal cyst and not testicular cancer. What i suggest is that you go to your doctor as soon as possible. Also if it feels like you can nearly distinguish the lump slightly from the testicle kind of like a nodule then i reckon its a cyst but if its not near the eppididymis of your testicles then it may well be cancer. I also heard one in three men have eppididymal cyst
