i have posted this question on mens sexual
health forums but did not recieve any good
answers. i have had this lump above my
left testicle for as long as i can
remember. sometimes its small ans some
times it swells up. throughout all the
years i have experienced slight pain but
only for seconds at each time so i never
really paid attention to it. i should
mention that my right testicle is bigger
then my left one, but my left hangs lower
them my right one. about 4 days ago i
started experiencing pain in both of my
testicles, more in my left one though.
besides the pain, sometimes i feel like
this pressure feeling, i cant reeally
describe it but i feel something is going
on, but i cant put my finger on it. my
question to you is: do you think these are
symptoms or testicular cancer? or is there
something else that can be a factor. also
since i had this for a very long time do
you think that its too late for me to do
somehting about it? im currently
researching places where i can get a freee
screening, but still no luck. im around
new york are, can you tell me where i can
get some free help? i have no medical
insurance, and no money, and i really dont
want to die.

Go to www.plannedparenthood.org.
Then type your zip code into the
thing at the top. You will find a list of
planned parenthoods near you. Some of them
offer men's health services, call them up
and ask.
The procedure for posting a doctor's
question is different or I'd move it for
you, I don't really know how. But I'll
look into it.

Hey ao8,
Try to post to the testicular cancer
forum, there is a very nice medical
student that could help you there.
And by the way no one can post directly to
the doctor forum, you have to wait to see
the "Doctor online" button and click on it
that's the only way. But I think they have
a limited amount of questions that they
accept daily after what the button becomes
"Doctor offline".
Anyway just post in testicular cancer
forum and you should get an answer
quickly.

Hi Ao8! Posted: 10-31-07 06:46am
Most lumps in the scrotum are not
testicular cancer.
However, you should see GP for advice.
Pain and swelling of the testicles,
together with nodules in testicles can be
a sign for testicular cancer.
Do you feel pain in the lower abdomen,
back, or groin areas?
Have you experienced swelling of the
scrotum or sudden collection of fluid in
your scrotum?
Do you have a pulling sensation or feeling
of unusual heaviness in the scrotum?
There is a program called Family Health
Plus, funded through the State of New York
and administered through the Rockland
County Health Department.
It's intended to help people of ages 19 to
64 with limited income, by providing a
free health insurance.
