Hey dude,

Well, if you read this article carefully you could notice this:

If you find any kind of lump, fluids or any kind of asymmetry- you should seek for medical help immediately. Although, it doesn’t have to be a cancer- it can spread if not stopped by the early diagnosis and treatment. Only a physician can make a positive diagnosis.

This also:

Of course, these symptoms do not indicate only on presence of testicular cancer. As a matter of fact- most lumps in the scrotum are not testicular cancer. Other diseases and conditions that can produce testicular lumps include 1. Epididymitis- inflammation of epididymis 2. Hydrocele 3. Spermatocele 4. Varicocele 5. other kinds of benign scrotal masses

Anyway, if you have most of the sympotoms:

1. tenderness or enlargement of tissue inside the testis 2. big amount of fluid in the scrotum- condition called hydrocele 3. a dull ache in the groin area or abdomen, especially the lower part 4. feeling of unusual heaviness in the scrotum 5. unexplained fatigue

, then you should see your doctor!

However, you're too young to get testicular cancer, so I doubt on it.

Take care!

Well i'm 15 and I have noticed for about 2 years since I was 13 I have like another testical attached to my left testical by a vein if I squeeze it it'll hurt but if I don't mess with it it's fine it gets bigger by time now almost the half the size of my testicals and it's about as tough as my testicals I don't know what it is scared to go to doctors or tell my parents because I don't want it to be cancer.

I do remember from when I was taking a shower that I started doing my own testicular tests and I think it was really helpful and I think that it was a good thing to start with. I think that if anyone reading this article sees that there's anything in common with what they're experiencing, that it would be a good idea to talk to a doctor because there are symptoms on here that are not always related to cancer and it helps to bear that in mind. Thanks for posting this and I look forward to reading more.
