Hi @wtcfla, it's a good think that you noticed this lump and have made an appointment to see your doctor about it, rather than ignore it. A scrotal mass or testicular lump might be an accumulation of fluids, the growth of abnormal tissue, or normal contents of the scrotum that have become swollen, inflamed or hardened. But it does need to be investigated further with your doctor to be sure what it is.
