Go to the Doctor's! Don't waste time! Testicular cancer is on the rise in young men. Get it checked out!

This is not a waste of time.
The people who go to the Doctor with a cold are wasting his time, this is not you.
3 years ago i went to the doctor with 'a waste of time' and if i hadn't then i would now be dead.
A lump on my abdomen was cancer and it really was very late in the day, it meant a big big operation, lots of pain, time in hosptal, and i could have died if i'd left it any longer.
Go today, this is serious stuff and i know from experience that the earlier you catch these things the better.
I'd say that it's a 99.9% chance that it'll turn out to be nothing but better safe than sorry.

Yes, yes ,yes, YES. You will not be considered a time-waster, but as someone who is literally 'on the ball'. IF - and it's a big 'if' - it is testicular cancer, then, diagnosed early it is 100% curable. So much better safe than sorry. Well done for taking care of yourself.

Much safer to get it checked, no doctor should or would think that getting a lump checked is a time waste. You will I am sure just be given reassurance. ( I only found 3 malignant lumps in nearly 30 years!)

Just go to the doctors mate. If its nothing then at least that worry is off your mind. My friend had testicular cancer, so always check ya tackle lads. If you find anything out of the ordinary go to doctors. They will be pleased that you came to see them, instead of ignoring what could be something serious

Just go, you're not a time waster you have a problem... I'm the same, always reluctant to go to the doctor, but you're better safe than sorry and in this case you'll be REALLY sorry if you don't go and it is serious.

Go to the doctor. He certainly won't see you as a time waster! It's very important to work this up!

Well, lets rationally think about this. If you do have testicular cancer and you don't go, you'll die. If you do go and you find out it's nothing, then there's no harm done and you'll have peace of mind.
Better to be safe than sorry.
