Bump/Testicle "in half"

Hey, I'm a 17(18 in 9 days) year old male. So I noticed yesterday after a nap that my right testicle hurt, with about the same pain as if I had recently been sacked. Then a few hours later it seemed as if my testicle was getting larger, as I felt pressure. I thought a warm bath might fix it, but during the bath I noticed that there is either a large lump on my testicle, or it somehow split in half. I have not recently sustained any testicular injury, so I'm a tad confused.
Could it be testicular cancer?

This is something you need to have checked right away.  Only an ultrasound of the testicle will tell you for sure  what it is you've found, and its important you don't wait.

The website ********.com is the place to go for more info. Try posting your question in the forums, there are a lot of guys that can tell you first hand what may be going on and give you the best advice on what your next step should be.  It may not be serious but if it is treating it early is vital.  All the best.
