A testicular tumor is the abnormal growth of tissue inside a testicle, which can be benign or malignant in nature. It is usually noticed as a lump or a change in the consistency of the gland.
Common symptoms: The most common is noticing a painless nodule, an increase in size, or a sensation of heaviness in the scrotum; at times it is accompanied by discomfort or changes in firmness.

Which specialist treats it? The urologist is the one who studies this type of finding, with support from the oncologist when needed; in children, the pediatrician and the pediatric oncologist take part. If you notice something different during a self-exam, scheduling a consultation is the best decision.
