Consistency: Testicles should be uniformly smooth and somewhat firm. If there are any bumps or hard spots or if the entire testicle feels differently than the other side, see a healthcare provider.

See below: You are checking for masses in the testicles, feeling for lumps. Also looking at size and comparing for symmetry to pick up a change.
