Can someone just post the symptoms?
I don't have a lump but it feels like a but bumpy at the back. I read they were veins coz there musat be a way to get the sperm from the ball swimming to the end xD
And I don't have blood coming out, no dragging feeling, but its sort of at the back. I dont know.
Help ):
This should be in the health advice i think.
But i researched it and ill pm you the symptons...
Lots of things it could be apart from that. A friend of mine had simliar and it was nothing to worry about just a tissue thickening but I think you should talk to your parents about it and get it checked. :)
Okay, it's just they say from 15 to 30s or somethying and im only 14. Well nrly 15. Does that affect it ?
All of the sites say ages 15+

SO does that include 14 year olds ?

What causes testicular cancer, actually?
Nobody knows..
What causes testicular cancer?
The causes of testicular cancer are unknown, but men born with an undescended testicle (one that remains in the abdominal cavity rather than descending into the scrotum) may be at greater risk of developing the disease.
Other factors that are thought to make testicular cancer more likely include:
having a brother who had testicular cancer
fertility problems
being from a wealthier social group
having a rare complication of mumps called mumps orchitis (painful swelling of the testis)
Found that, hope it answered your question Herman.

I'm 6 foot. Can you get a check up with your doctor without ur parents knowing.
And what are the stats for testicular cancer in men.
Yes you can get one without your parents and ring them to ask?
about 1 in 1000 methinks, but that might be low/high - i went on a rough guess.
I dont know, Dan, but i think your parents should be aware of this situation, just incase you do have Testicular Cancer, so best to tell your parent(s) and then get an appointment just to be sure.
And i found this for the stats or whatever ;
Testicular cancer is a relatively rare cancer with less than 2,000 new cases registered every year in the United Kingdom (UK).
Yes you can get a check up in confidence my friend. just ask them for confidentiality and nobody will know about it:). You can trust your doctor dude, and remember...do not worry!Quote:

;] Its alright, Dan.
Your welcome, Herman. :P
Your sperm doesn't travel through a vein - vein's carry blood.
Your most likely just worrying about something that doesn't need to be, but if you really are concerned I'd say go to the doctors and get it checked out! :]
Well looking at diagrams there are veiny things at the back. It says it should be a bit lumpy u know.
