Maybe/epididymitis.: Usually, epididymitis is painful while testicular cancer presents classically with a painless mass. Fever, tenderness and swelling can also be present. The major cause in heterosexual men < 35 years old is chlamidya trachomatis, accounting for 70% of cases. A course of appropriate antibiotics clears it up. Testicular cancer can be worked up by taking AFB and b-hcg levels, chest x-ray, and ct.

Time to get an: Expert to check it out, physical exam, perhaps some blood work. Maybe yes, but certainly not definitely. Ask your family doctor, urgent care, and if they are puzzled or unsure, a urologist. Blood tests are HCG and alpha-feto-protein.
