Small/movable lump in testicle?!


Question: Small/movable lump in testicle?
I'm 15 years old, sixteen in a month, but pretty far through puberty for my age. I recently (a couple days) found a small, pea-sized, movable, bump inside my left testicle.. and I'm concerned. I noticed it and felt it for awhile, and decided it was nothing, but later went to pee and felt a sharp pain from the the tip of my penis running through the spot in the testicle. I just felt this pain again while pooping. Any ideas on what this could be? Or do I HAVE to see a doctor??

Answers:

Any lumps or irregularity with your testicles needs to be checked by a doctor to make sure there is nothing serious wrong. It will most likely be nothing to worry about but do see a doctor as soon as you can. Doing so could save your life if it is something serious. Sorry to alarm you on this one but my brother had a similar experience, it turned out he had testicular cancer in the early stages. He got treatment and is now well in the clear, all because he saw the doctor as soon as he found the lump

Hey Mark,

Like Sam said, see your Doctor. Tell your Mom or Dad, and do not be embarrassed to do so. They will be happy to know you are concerned, and more than happy to have you checked out/examined/treated for like Sam said, something....Or Nothing. At least you and your parents will know for sure, and be able to monitor it. Again, do not be embarrassed about talking with your Mom, Dad, or Doctor about this. I know it may be a little awkward, but they really would rather know so that they can get you help if needed. If they don't know (Because how would they ever really, unless you brought up the concern) it could turn into something/be something more serious. Or again....Not. Just let them know.

Good luck, and take care!



honestly, no idea but it might be nothing and it could be something, i would get it checked out by a doctor, the sooner the better just to put your mind at rest and if it is something bad then they will be able to treat it straight away, hope this helps

Sam :)
