Mild testicle pain, no tenderness?!


Question: Mild testicle pain, no tenderness?
I know not a whole lot of you are doctors but prior to my doctor visit, I'd like to ask y'all this question. I've had this mild pain in my testicles (mostly on the left) for a few days now but the real stumper to me is that there no tenderness. This scares me that it might be something serious, such as testicular cancer, made even worse by me being hypochondriac. I would appreciate any kind of helpful feedback.

Answers:

I'm a testicular cancer survivor and suggest you do the self-exam for testicular cancer, or “man exam.” Symptoms vary greatly from man to man, but testicle pain and discomfort are common symptoms. And TC is the #1 cancer for men 15-35. The sooner a doctor can catch it the better the prognosis, and most likely the less treatment will be required. It could also be a blocked vein, infection, or benign cyst, but all of those things also need a doctor's attention. Don't worry till you have to - only a doctor can make an accurate diagnosis! This site has links to credible testicular cancer resources, and shows the self-exam with a list of symptoms. Good luck and hopefully it's nothing serious.
