How Can A Lump In The Right Testicle Be Treated?

I am 48 years old and my right testicle is about the size of a racquetball, and it feels like there is another knot or lump farther back up cord or behind it, between my legs. the second lump is a newer thing in the last few months but the enlarged testicle has been that way for a couple years. there is no pain or discomfort and i do have a hernia in my belly button that has been there for about 5 to 6 years. is this something i should be worried about

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Get an ultrasound scrotum done. Most probably it could be epididymitis or encysted hydrocele. However we have to rule out conditions like testicular tumors which can also present like these. An ultrasound can easily differentiate between these.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
