are ur balls supposed to feel like a discomfort when u are growing ? im 14 turning 15 soon.

i examine myself but the balls themselves feel fine , but theres alot of cords or tube like things around the balls.

they dont hurt, its just kinda there. its been like this for 4months now.

i havent had sex , just masterbated. maybe its a enlarged vein or something ? please help , is this normal?, is this serious?,

thank you

So there's no pain, right?

Well, it's definitely not from masturbating, don't worry about that. If it doesn't actually hurt, I wouldn't worry too much, unless the discomfort is really bugging you.

hi b0b.

The veiny things you are feeling could be where your vas deferens (the tubes that connect your testicles to your prostate and urethra) attach to your testicles. These are completely normal, and should be felt on the back side of your testicles. If you feel them in other areas, you should get this checked out! I remember feeling discomfort while I was your age for awhile, especially while I was going through growth spurts. Have you been growing quickly lately?

I think that if you trust your parents, you should talk to them about it. If you have someone like a counsellor to talk to at school as well, they can guide you in the right direction!
Remember, doctors are there to help you, not to make fun of you or laugh at you or get mad at you!!
