Hi,

Thank you for posting your query and informing about your husband's problems. I agree with you that he should consult a doctor, so that the lump can be examined in detail. If necessary, an ultrasound or MRI scan may be needed to confirm the diagnosis. The treatment plan can be made after that.

I hope my reply has helped you.

I would be pleased to answer, if you have any follow up queries or if you require any further information.
     
Best wishes,
