I have a large quarter size lump on right testicle more closer to leg or thigh. It's been about 4 days its hard and hurts to touch. This morning a little bit of blood and puss came out but not much. I pretty much just woke up to it one morning. I have a prior of systs had two of them on my leg but that was months ago.

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi.
This lump looks to be an abscess.
I think this needs to be seen by a Surgeon for proper care with antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medicines and incision and drainage if required.
This area is nasty for cure of the infections and spread of infection to the nearing structures very fast.

Apply liquid Povidone Iodine to the area and around frequently to kill the skin bacteria which can complicate the infection too much.
I find this answer helpful
