Testicular cancer occurs in the testicles (testes), which are located inside the scrotum, a loose bag of skin underneath the penis. The testicles produce male sex hormones and sperm for reproduction.
Symptoms -
Testicular cancer can result in a number of signs and symptoms. These may include:
* A lump or enlargement in either testicle
* A feeling of heaviness in the scrotum
* A dull ache in the abdomen or groin
* A sudden collection of fluid in the scrotum
* Pain or discomfort in a testicle or the scrotum
* Enlargement or tenderness of the breasts
* Unexplained fatigue or a general feeling of not being well
Cancer usually affects only one testicle. -

look man if you have a lump make an appointment with a uroligist. Most want you to go to a family doctor first and be referred but I would definitely go to the family doctor and tell him look I want to see a Uroligist. I had testicular cancer and have been cancer free for about 3-4 years. The smartest thing I have ever done was went to the doctor as soon as I noticed it. This can move to lymph nodes then lungs and then to your brain if left untreated, However you have a 98 % chance of survival if you catch it when it is in the testical within a few percentage points depending on the type.
There isnt really symptoms if you notice something strange then you need to go. There are a few things this could be that are not cancer related but still may need to be treated or they can cause serious problems even if it is not cancer.
I'm not trying to scare you but just trying to make you realize the gravity of the situation.. Your not going to find piece of mind on here. >>>>My best piece of advice is to make sure you see a uroligist because many times family doctors do not know a lot about this.
Hit me up if you need to ask anything else.. I will say a lil prayer for you hope it all works out well..

The most common symptom of testicular cancer is a painless swelling or lump in one of the testicles. Other, less common, symptoms include enlargement of a testicle, a pain in one testicle and an ache in the lower stomach.

Copy & Paste has a perfect answer. I experienced all these symptoms, except abdominal pain. Don't wait, when caught early T cancer is 99% curable. I had mine 7 years ago and have no negative after effects. If you have any doubts, please go see a urologist asap!
