Hi, I'm 14, white; about 2-3 weeks ago I've noticed a lump on the top of my right testicle right next to the epididymis. It is smaller than a pea. It is on the outside of my testicle and extending from it is a small wiggly "strand." If i move the strand around it is painful and if i squeeze it it is painful. It isnt painful if i role over the lump with my finger. It is tender and painful when i squeeze it though. For the past 2-3 weeks i've been checking my testicles daily and it hasnt gone away, but my right testicle isn't enlarged; it is the same size as my left and they hang equally after a warm bath. I showed my father the lump and he told me that it was nothing and if my testicle started to hurt to tell him which it hasn't. I have to get my physical for 9th grade in 1 to 2 weeks and i was wondering if i should go earlier to make sure it isn't cancer. I've been reading about testicular cancer and it mostly doesnt fit my symptons but some do. I am out of the age range when you should start doing T.S.E's, it is on the top of my testicle which is rare, it is painful, and it has a wiggly "strand" extending off it. But it is a lump. Should i be worried?
-Thank you |
