Lump Under Testicles, Moving, Enlarged Lymph Node In Neck. Is Lump A Swollen Lymph Node?
I have a lump right under my testicles at the base of where they meet my body, in the taint as I know it to be. The bump is not in the skin or directly under the skin but appears to be free moving. When trying to squeeze it it moves either further down my taint to y anus or up into my sack. It is squishy and reminds me of the feeling of the lymph nodes in my neck. I have had an enlarge lymph node in my neck for ten years but it hasn't grown so the doctors never touched it. Could this be a lymph node in my private region?

Thanks for writing to HCM
There are various causes of swelling in that region.
From history,it seems to be in superficial plain and benign in nature.
You need proper clinical examination and investigations.
It may be lipoma,dermoid ,neurofibroma etc.
You should consult surgeon.
Clinical examination and ultrasonography can lead to diagnosis.
Management depends accordingly.
