See doctor: A lump on the testicle, regardless of size, painful or not, warrants an examination by a doctor.

It is usually not serious and an ultrasound will be done (which is not painful) to determine what to do next. Encourage him to follow up please!

Get evaluated - now.: Any new lump on the testicle must be taken seriously. Testicular cancer can occur in young men. His doctor will likely order an ultrasound evaluation. If it is a cancer, it is likely to be highly treatable - so long as one acts quickly to get evaluation and treatment. Of course, there are many less concerning possibilities; my job is to be on the look-out for worst case scenarios. Lgromkomd.
