I found a lump on my scrotum skin. It was hard at first and I tried popping it, but it wouldn't pop. A few days passed and finally I was able to squeeze puss out of it. I've continued to squeeze puss out of it for the past 24 hours. It never actually "popped" just sort of leaks when I squeeze it. Now, right under the lump, my scrotum is a little red and swollen. That might be from all the squeezing or it might be an infection. It doesn't hurt.

In any case, I have an appointment to see a urologist, but it is 4 weeks away. Is this something I should be more concerned with and push for an earlier appointment? Or is it not as urgent and I can just go in to see them next month?

I always hear that if you catch many diseases in an early stage that they are curable. But how soon must they be caught?
