Two weeks ago, I noticed what appeared to be a pimple between both testes, near the middle of my scrotum. I shrugged it off as meaningless as I generally shave the area, and considered it to be an ingrown hair.However, two days ago  - I noticed an unusual itch in the area, and examined myself in the shower. I was alarmed to see that it had grown from what was the size of a pea, to nearly double in the course of a two week span. (I apologize in advance for this part, I know it isnt pleasant)Today, in the shower as I was examining myself further - I was able to "pop" what looked like an abnormally large pimple. It produced a gluey 'eggshell' colored substance, and a little bit of blood. The itching then intensified, and now it appears that the lump is still there, and still the same size. Furthermore, it seems hard - but painless to the touch.Has anyone had any experience with something like this? I can find nothing on the internet that shows pictures, or similar circumstances.I have my fingers crossed that it's not serious.Thank you, very much - for anything you can contribute.-worried in Ohio.   Worried_in_Ohio Wed, 28 May 2008 00:00:00 GMT  On 5/28/2008 Worried_in_Ohio wrote:I hope someone out there has experience with this type of issue.As much as Im embarassed to discuss something so personal on a public forum, Im frightened enough to gamble with my pride... I am a 34 y/o white male.
