it could be a cyst, it's sort of like a huge zit. may have been caused by an infected hair. cyst usually form on butts behind ears or armpits. It will hurt pretty bad until it shrinks or pops- if yours has a head- it may be ready to drain. put hot compresses on it and after about 15 minutes it should drain.

I have seen cancer start with a small pimple like bump on the inside of the cheek.  If concerned seek advise from your doctor or denist.

It sounds like an inflamed lymph node, nothing serious. Lymph nodes are the body's way of saying you have an infection somewhere near that area. Yes, go to the doctor.

Its probibly a cyst or some fatty tissue that needs to be drained.  Definately see a doctor to have this done to ensure that it is not something more serious.

It could be anything from a lipoma to a sebaceous cyst?  You're doctor will have to examine it and maybe excise it to make the correct diagnosis.

It could be a fatty cyst, a blocked pore, an ingrown hair, a lymph note or a gland.  You need to have it examined by a medical practitioner, rather than have yahoo speculate it for you:)

maybe a cyst.  does it look like a red, swollen pimple?  stick it with a pin and see if pus comes out.  If it does, it's a cyst and you need to see a doctor to get it out.

Hello there, I would highly recommend you go to another doctor for a second opinion.  Unlikly that the lump in your head is related to your testicle, get the doc to check that out too. \nGood luck, youll be fine

If you find a lump on your testicle, see a doctor, preferably a urologist, right away. The abnormality may not be cancer, it may just be an infection. But if it is testicular cancer, it will spread if it is not stopped by treatment. Waiting and hoping will not fix anything. Please note that free floating lumps in the scrotum that are not attached in any way to a testicle are not testicular cancer. When in doubt, get it checked out - if only for peace of mind.\n\nHow to do a self examination of the testicles:\n*Stand in front of a mirror. Check for any swelling on the scrotal skin. \n*Examine each testicle with both hands. Place the index and middle fingers under the testicle with the thumbs placed on top. Roll the testicle gently between the thumbs and fingers -- you shouldn't feel any pain when doing the exam. Don't be alarmed if one testicle seems slightly larger than the other, that's normal. \n*Find the epididymis, the soft, tubelike structure behind the testicle that collects and carries sperm. If you are familiar with this structure, you won't mistake it for a suspicious lump. Cancerous lumps usually are found on the sides of the testicle but can also show up on the front. Lumps on the epididymis are not cancerous. \n*Other signs of testicular cancer to keep in mind are: \nAny enlargement of a testicle \nA significant loss of size in one of the testicles \nA feeling of heaviness in the scrotum \nA dull ache in the lower abdomen or in the groin \nA sudden collection of fluid in the scrotum \nPain or discomfort in a testicle or in the scrotum \nEnlargement or tenderness of the breasts \n\nI hesitate to mention the following list, since anything out of the ordinary down there should prompt a visit to the doctor, but you should be aware that the following symptoms are not normally signs of testicular cancer:\nA pimple, ingrown hair or rash on the scrotal skin \nA free floating lump in the scrotum, seemingly not attached to anything \nA lump on the epidiymis or tubes coming from the testicle that kind of feels like a third testicle \nPain or burning during urination \nBlood in the urine or semen \nhttp://tcrc.acor.org/tcexam.html...

It sounds like a cyst. I had one on my finger and went to a dermatologist and they took it off. Have it checked out to be on the safe side.Don't sweat it.

I've had something that sounds like what you have a couple of times. It was on my outer labia and both times It ended up being an infected hair follicle. In my case, I could see an actual small hair sticking up near the middle of the bump with a little bit of white around it. First I wiped the area with a little bit of alcohol and a Q-tip to cleanse the area. Then I took a pair of tweezers and pulled the piece of hair out (pinching the skin up with my other hand). As soon as I pulled the piece of hair out, pus came out. I squeezed it gently (as it was painful) to get the pus out (until I saw a bit of blood, so I knew I had all the pus out). Then I took a Q-tip and a little alcohol and wiped the area to clean the spot and put a fresh pair of cotton undies on. I've heard of people getting ingrown hairs there as well, so it could be something a doctor might need to help you with if that's the case. If you think it might be a pimple, you might try putting warm wet compresses on the area. Don't squeeze though, as if you don't see any type of white head you could make it worse (it could be a boil).

If you're not just kidding, you should see a doctor to have the growth removed and biopsied to rule out cancer, and to rid yourself of it.  The size must cause it to get in the way of your clothes.  It could have to do with a fungal infection, or hopefully is something benign.  Good luck.

Could be a benign cyst.  Could be an infected lymph node.  Could be something more serious.  Go to your doctor right away!
