I am male age 53 fit, workout 4-5 days a week. I recently noticed a
soft sort of a bulge on lower right side from navel over several inches
and down several inches. is only out 1/4 inch or a little more. It
tends to burn when I sit or lean forward or lift much but does not hurt
to rub. Doctor felt it and said may be normal for me but do not think
so. Had some tenderness in right testicle and doctor said it feels
normal. Worry could be tumor or something but just feels like thicker
skin but is a bulge too. Cannot see where you can get that type hernia,
could it be one. Maye a pre-hernia if that is possible?

Impossible to tell without examination. If you're uncomfortable with the
opinion you already have, you should get another one.
