Hi people, i'm new to this forum, and I
could really do with some help concerning
'down below'. Well where to start:
this has been happening a long time, about
5 years now, my sack/scrotum seems to
tighten and loosen alot every day. My
testicles don't seem to swell, they both
stay the same size as each other, but feel
hard when the sack seems to go harder.
There's no pain in my testicles at this
point either, is this normal?
Another one here: at the end of my
testicles there's a squidgy type pea sized
thing attached to the bottom of each one,
there's no pain in them, are these normal
too?
Lastly: I have these noodle type things
under the skin at the top of my legs, i've
had these for years too. I am a little
overweight, but I read these were a sign
of testicular cancer.
I'm pretty scared so please help people!

I had cancer, I did not have pain, get it
checked out, it might not be cancer, but,
then again it could be, you should get to
the Dr. A.S.A.P!
Sincerely,

I'm nearly 21. I had an examination when
I was about 16, and went for a scan, but I
don't remember feeling what I can feel
now, I thought I had felt something on my
other testicle.
It's hard to explain what it feels like,
it feels right toward the end of my
testicle, and sometimes it feels like I
can grab it. It's not like a bump in the
middle, it's like it's part of the
testicle itself. I heard that it could be
a tube, but it doesn't feel like one to
me.
As for my scrotum, I changes alot, but I
don't know if i'm over sensitive to the
heat or something. I doesn't feel like
i'm swelling, I can touch my testicles,
and they don't feel tender or sore.

Go to a urologist and tell him your
situation....Don't be scared..if it is
cancer, it is very curable...but you MUST
see someone to catch it early, that is the
key.
I have had it twice (2001 & 2005) and
I am just fine.....but please see someone.
