How To Confirm Testicular Cancer?

Right, i was watching a programme a while ago about testicular cancer and it started to get me worried. I do usually check for any changes but recently i have been checking a lot. I discovered a tiny, spot/pimple like bump near the bottom of the right testicle(not big at all). It seems like it's on both testis but i can find it much easier on the right side, its not big at all. I have no symptoms along with it, such as; abdominal pain, lower back pain, groin pain, a pain in the testicle area, fatigued, a change to either testicle or a feeling of been unwell. I dont know if it's a part of the epididymis, i even heard the appendix testis. Also There is no history of testicular cancer in the family. I'm just very worried and need some proffesional to tell me becuase im ebarrassed at the moment to go to the doctors...?

Thanks for your question on HCM.
In my opinion you should not worry at all for testicular cancer.
As the thing you are feeling (pimple like) is normal part of testis.
It is entry point of spermatic cord in the testis. So it is slightly protruding and gives feeling of small lump on testis.
You can also get done ultrasound examination of testis and confirm this.
So no need to worry for cancer in testis.
Be relax and calm.
