A small hard lump the size of a grain of rice has grown below the testicles. What disease is it?

Patient's question:

A small, rice-sized hard lump has grown below the right testicle, initially accompanied by some pain. I visited a local hospital and had a color Doppler ultrasound performed. The doctor suggested it might be chronic epididymitis (though I didn’t feel anything at first—only noticed some pain in the past month). The medication has now relieved the pain, but the lump remains. The ultrasound report didn’t clearly identify what it was but ruled out a cyst. I’d like to ask the experts what this lump could be.
First follow-up question: What are physical examinations and auxiliary examinations?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, consider testitis. Have a color Doppler ultrasound examination. Check the specific condition to determine the treatment. Overcome psychological barriers, if there is any discomfort in the body, seek medical attention. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
