No . Your MD seems right . If it grows or becomes painful see Urologist. Chances are it won't

A testicle lump is inside the testicle but you can feel it from outside when palpating the testicle.

A 18-year-old male asked:
I have had a small lump on the end of my right testicle for about half a year, didnt really worry and I did it today, it is about the size of a Newtons cradle ball, no pain anywhere. I masturbate frequently, so I thought cyst maybe?

Likely benign but you should see a doctor, ultrasound of the testicle should be done.

2 months ago I felt a small bump on my testicle and was told it could be the appendix of the testis. It hasn't grown since. Does that rule out cancer?

See a doctor: You should have a direct exam with a doctor to assess the bump.
