hi,
i am currently 19. when i was about 14/15, i was hit in the groin with a ball and lost my left testicle. it shrunk to the size of a pea. my other testicle has never given me any pain or any other problems. i have regular sexual drive and everything is normal.
but all this talk about "testicular torsoin" has had me worried. should i get my "dead" testicle surgically removed and get the other one "tacked" to avoid any complications. i am really worried. plz help.
also, is it possible to take some tissue from my healthy testicle to use it replace my dead one like the british man who suffered cancer ?
