Lump In Scrotum, Swollen. Help

I ve been having a lump in my scrotum just above the left testicle . Its kinda like a swollen vein , feels like worms . Since this, my scrotum hangs loose all the time, and it seems like it has lost its elasticity. Its been over a year now, and I m starting to feel the same thing above my right testicle also now. I m 18 yrs old, did not consult a doctor, too embarrassed! Help me
