HI,Dear, Thanks for the query from you for your soft painless lump above left testicle,which has grown n tribbled in size in past months time and is around the tubes of the ball sack.1-I feel concerned that you are serious to know where from this soft painless lump comes above the left testicle? 2-In my opinion this left supra-testicular soft lump which grew 3 times in last month,with painless tubes on the left side,is of indirect inguinal hernia as it is supra-testicular and has grown around the tubes of your left ball sack which is painless to touch.2-a-Another possibility of Spermatocele /or epididymal cyst-but this is less as it does not increase 3 times in 1 months time , where-as the indirect inguinal hernia could grow 3 times -and is usually above the testes.3-I would advise Surgeons opinion-who would fix the diagnosis by USG/ clinical testing for indirect inguinal hernia-by cough test/.4-Any how your soft supr-testicular lump- is worrysome as else "strangulation risk of indirect hernia"-would increase.5-Hope this would solve your worry of the soft-painless lump above left testicle . 6-Wellcome to HCM for any more query.
