It’s hard to put this into words, so I will do the best that I can. I’m 28 years old and as long as I can remember I have always had this problem, if it’s even one at all. This could be normal and I’m just a hypercondreact in many ways. The following is a testical problem; my left testical fluctuates in size from normal (normal being the same size as the right tesical) to an enlarged state (what seems to look like almost double the size of the right testical). My left testical also hangs lower than the right testical too. I first brought this to the doctors attention when I was 15 years old needing a physical to play high school soccer. The doctor said everything was normal and it’s not uncommon for one testical to be larger then the other one and hang lower too. At 20 years old I had it looked at again as part of my 20 year old physical. The doctor found nothing to be out of the ordinary and said that one testical larger and hanging lower is common. About 5 days I when to see the doctor (because I’m taking a human sexuality course and chapter 5 was talking about the male reproductive organs and when I read the section about tesicals and common problem my mind went crazy, hence the HYPERCONDREACT) He examined both testicals and again he found nothing abnormal. He said that the left testical is larger than the right one and it’s not as solid as the right one. He said that my spermatic cord and epididymis is normal. I also told him that once every so often (twice a year, give or take) it will feel like someone has tapped my testicals and I get that feeling that I was just kick in the testicals. I checked, and the doctor checked and their does not appear to be any lumps on the testicals. When my left testical is fluctuating in size, I feel no pain. I don't even know it is happening until i look down there. When my testical is enlarged and hanging low, sometimes if I touch on the bottom, it is lightly sensitive to the touch but no pain or sensitivity anywhere else. Sometimes if I touch my epididymis on the left testical it slighty feels senitive like I have been tapped in the testicals. Me being the hypercondreact that i am i search the internet and find symptoms that i knid of fall into at least one or more of the categories of the following:
Epididymitis
Hydrocele
Testicular cancer
Torsion
Varicocele
and it's scaring the heck out of me. Am i a HYPROCONDREACT
