See a Doctor.: It may be superficial small boil of scrotum.But need to be seen to decide whats best for you.You may need a sonogram, depending what the doctor feels. We are concerned about testicular cancer first, otherwise it may also be a small cyst.

Either, or: Could be a swollen gland or cyst. Most likely diagnosis is reactive lymph. Should resolve soon.
If not, see an ENT doc for exam.
