What Does A Lump Under The Left Testicle Indicate?

I found a lump under the skin and under my left nut. It was smaller a few days ago. Then I decided to squeeze it a I felt a pop. Now it’s the size of a small walnut or ping- pong ball. It is sore when I bump it or mess with it. There is no redness or pimples. You can only see it under the skin. It’s pretty solid. What is it. Please help

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history and understood the concerns.
Swelling under thecskin of scrotum below left testicle can due to the following reasons:
Large sebaceous cyst.
Encysted hydrocele.
Hematoma.
Since you have tried to pop it there would have been a formation of hematoma or seroma thus increasing the size.
I would advise you the following:
Consult a General Surgeon for clinical evaluation and examination.
Ultrasound of the area and aspiration if blood or fluid.
Further management as advised by your Surgeon.
Stop fondling or popping.
Give scrotal support.
I find this answer helpful
