Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
The lump in your testes, if appeared suddenly and subsequently disappeared, with some amount of associated pain, the most likely cause may be infection. However, any testis lump must be evaluated clinically and diagnosis confirmed. If it was on the surface, then it may be a boil.
The lump in your throat if sore and sudden in appearance, again should be first thought of as an infection. Sometimes they can be chronic infections. You may start taking anti inflammatory medications and consult your doctor and take antibiotics if required.
Hope this helps
