Hi welcome to the health care magic
The lump in testes should be evaluated further
If it is painful and tender to touch with inflammation than it can be abscess for which antibiotic given and if needed it should be drained
USG testes will be beneficial for primary work up based on which further work up can be planned
If needed FNAC done to rule out nature of lesion
Take care
Hope your concern solved
Consult surgeon for examination and further work up accordingly
