Testical cancer

If you can move the lump around, then its probably not testicular cancer. Testicular cancer is usually a hard or firm lump on the surface of the testicle itself. You wouldn't be able to move it around separate from the testicle. You're probably feeling your epidydimis, or part of your spermatic cord, or perhaps even a varicocele (enlarged varicose veins near the testicle, usually harmless). If you go to the doctor, just tell them you want a physical exam. Most physicals include the doctor checking out your testicles for signs of cancer. At least the doc should do that - if he/she doesn't check for that, find another doc. You can also tell the doc you felt a lump on your right testicle that you are concerned about - the doc will check it out and let you know if its normal or not.
