Hello,

I'm Rahul 26 yrs old. I feel some mild pain in my left testicle for 5 to 6 hrs in a day. Due to this pain i feel some pain in my left leg also.I'm afraid that whether its testicle cancer or not.I don't have any lumps on my testicle.

Please help me if you have any idea on this?

Thanks in advance...

Rahul.

I could be wrong, but it doesn't sound like testicular cancer. You may have a hernia or a tear in your groin area. I had a hernia when i was in grade school and had similar symptoms. One of my testicles hung way lower than the other and i had felt some pain. Either way, ask your doctor to be sure. Hope this helped.

what could also be the problem is whether or not if you wear boxers or briefs. if you wear clothing too tight, that can also cause some pain as well. boxers are actually preferred over briefs by doctors is what i read in an athletic article by my professor. but yes i would get it checked out too.
