Big lump(s) in left testicle. Testicular Cancer?

[Anonymous]

Hello,

I am only 13 years old and have noticed one big lump or more in the left testicle. I sometimes feel it is heavier than the right one. I have significantly less hair in that testicle, feel the lumps are located in the conduit that heads to it, and it sometimes hurts mildly. I have had this since I was about 10 if I am not mistaken and have never asked anyone. Should I be worried? I have lately found out it could be cancer, and am extremely tense.

Help would be terribly appreciated.

Tell your Mom, Dad or school nurse. Don't be afraid or embarrassed. My son told me at 15 that he had a lump in his testicle, it turned out to be just a cyst. Now my husband has been found to have testicular cancer, it has the highest cure rate of all cancers, even in worse case scenarios. Please tell someone as soon as possible, most of all remember, don't be afraid. My thoughts will be with you honey!

Hi just to say that you must tell your parents that you are worried about this lump,If you have had it this long it is probably nothing to worry about but it does need checking out! my son was diagnosed at 17 with T/C and never told me about his lump Please get it checked

hey buckaroos, I'm currently authoring a website about testicular cancer and I stumbled on your posts.

Anyway, if you guys have it together enough to be posting your concerns on topix, I'm sure you can find your pediatrician's phone number and call up and ask about it. That's all it takes guys. Don't worry if you can't talk to your folks about it. There are gonna be a lot more things like that as you get older, trust me, but you've gotta do something about it.

I have a question, is a 3 cm mass in a testicle considered a lump? Could it be just a cyst or is it more likely to be cancer. They told me Im undergoing surgery but they were rather vague about it, i think they dont want me to get scared...im only 20 yrs old. Are they removing my ball? I raher now before the surgey but right now is the wkend so Im still tryin to get a hold of the doctor. Any info you have please .. im kinda scared....
