Hello,
I have cysts on both sides. I got them when I was 18 and saw the doctor quickly. After 4 visits being told mostly it was a twisted vein nothing to worry about I was getting stomach aches related to the cysts. Not that this was relayed to the doctor, I figured the cause myself. Easy self diagnostic. Try pulling the testes down and you get a similar ache. I was persistent and on the 4th visit he has me referred to have ultrasound scan done. Fortunately they were nothing to worry about as far as trouble was concerned. Since the technician figured them out and going by what the doctor said too I virtually ran out the hospital and haven't really looked back. The only problem I have is the cold when they go up into the abdomen and bicycle saddles. Unfortunately being a keen cyclist I tried persevering with them but given it is usually cold and wet in England, it isn't working any more with willpower. Will probably go back to the doc and see about getting them removed so I can get exercising in the rain again.
One thing I would like to add is, even if you are in America, or the Caribbean, you can all access the UK sites right? So take a look at the NHS information which has been provided for 4 issues with cysts and veins in testicles. It gives information about what they are, solutions and risks. Turns out Cancer is the 4% of all cases seen, at least in the UK, depending where their stats come from. That means 96% of you, and I, are going to have a good diagnoses. The most embarrassing thing about it is telling relatives why you are walking funny and need time off to visit hospital. Doctors are understanding and very helpful really. It makes it a lot easier to live with the issue if you are informed and don't meddle with them. Why would you if they hurt like mine anyway? I hate touching them.
Last point is my dad had similar or the same issue and he had his drained and is perfectly ok now. Golf ball issue gone in an afternoon, with the prick of a needle, nothing opened up at all! Lucky guy in my view.

ive had a cyst on my right testical and it doesnt hurt or anything i dont know what it is yet i haven't found the courage to go to the doctor but i will now that i read up on it and it seems that cysts are not life threatening and if you feel pain from them its not always and its not supposed to hurt a lot or hurt at all but i think that differs from the size of the cyst mine is only the size of ... a small pimple i can say and seeming how they can go to the size of a pea or bigger i guess i got lucky but in your case i have been reading up on this and your case sounds more like cancer im sorry to say ...when you said / Ive seen a difference in size with my right testi and its way larger and hangs really low...Its very painful if touched or when i sleep / those are some symptoms of cancer i dont recommend you wait til your health care kicks in because if it is cancer you are fighting against time, but if that is the case just know that testicular cancer can be cured BUT you will have a higher success rate the sooner a doctor treats it. so my advice is go talk to a doctor ask him if you can make some kind of an arrangement to hold the pay til the healthcare kicks in and checks your "problem" as soon as possible

hi im 15 and i have felt a lump above my penis on the epidemys i think. do lumps feel like they arent connected to the testical

That is such a lie. There is absolutely no way to pop a epididymus cyst and you dont wait for ultrasound scan results, you watch it happen on the screen. Plus a epididymus cyst isnt a infection. Its a collection of blocked fluid. Now to put your mind at rest a cyst cant become cancerous or cause impotance, 4/10 people have them and it is better to leave them alone then have them removed. Ive had mine for 5 years :)

hi, i'm 14 and i recently noticed a small lump in my left testicle.It's painless and very small.I went to a doctor and he said it's nothing to worry about but i'm not so sure.I went to an ultrasound and it turned out to be nothing special.I noticed it about a month ago and i really freaked out.But now, after a month, it started to shrink.My doc thinks that it's just some enlarged vein.But, this "lump"could be just some enlarged veins but it could be something far more serious.I'm getting really paranoid, don't want to end up without a testicle.

hi guys. im a 24yr old man. just recently went to see a urologist about a lump i had found on one of my testicles. like many other guys on here, i've been thinking the worst but the dr. said it's a cyst, no signs of any kind of malignancy, although he has booked me in for a scan or whatever.i wish i could help more hear but really don't have any answers. just trying to vent my frustrations with others who know exactly how i fell. christ knows my mrs. doesn't. haha. also, like others on here, i was admitted to hospital with severe testicular pain in the other bolllock, so there must be some kind of connection. really am trying to find out if this can turn cancerous. hopefully the rest of you guys are ok. this being Scotland, I'll be 80 n not using my penis n balls anymore before i get my scan appointment through. best of luck to everyone who shares this affliction.

Hi I Have Been Reading All of The Forums On This Site About testicular cysts... I Am One With The Same Issue, I Am 24 Years Old Now and when i was about 17 or 18 years old i noticed a small Pimple looking lump on my left testicle, I tried popping it when i first noticed it years back but it just would not budge, now it grew quickly in the Beginning when it first appeared, but has not really grown in size in the past 5 years.. its probably i would guesstimate the Size of a Small Peanut/ or 2 Pencil erasers, Not That Big. it does not really hurt or bother me to much at all just the fact that i have a Extra lump on my testi... is really beating me up! I Would Really Like to get it removed so in the future i will not have to worry about some one catching me naked and seeing it lol for the most part, i am a very shy guy so being open about it was and is not really an option, It does not effect me really at all, its just there and that affects me mentally. As i am sure others on here feel the same way. last night after watching You Tube For 1 1/2 hours and seeing people popping these things left and right as if it was ur average pimple just bigger and uglier, me and my Wife decided to take a poke at it and try to release all of the fluids and other stuff that may be in there, Using a sterile razor and House hold alcohol & peroxide i started poking it, i would say when it comes to taking pain: 1 out of 10 i am probably a 4 so i really do not react to pain like others, so poking it a little hurt and i saw a little bit of blood but was sure that i did not even dent it really so i quit... put a band aid and some anti bacterial/ Neo sporin and left it alone. I Do Not no what to do or were to start, I Am Hoping i Can Maybe Get Some Direction is to what i should do. i do not want to have any problems in the future if i leave it alone and i am kinda worried that if i get it removed that i may encounter some issues from the removal. What should i do ? Any help would be greatly Appreciated.
Thanks.
Thanks.

when i was 14 i found a seemingly solid lump on my left testicle. i had an ultrasound and they said it was just a cyst. it has been a while now and wwas just wondering whether cysts normally get removed or not

Hi I found a lump a couple of years ago and went to my gp. After the inspection I was told to go to the hospital for a ultrasound but never went. I just wanted to know what a cyst feels like? I have a small relatively hard lump with like a soft lump right on it or right next to it that I can sort of move around the hard lump dosent move. I checked my other nut and did find a small hard lump not actually on the testicle just next to it so just assumed they were cysts and thats why I never went for the ultrasound. Anyway if anyone can explain to me what a cyst feels like I would appreciate it.

im 29 and last summer i noticed a lump on my right ball ad was worried it was the big C (CANCER) I WAS EXAMINED BY A UROLOGIST and he performed a ultrasound and determined that its just a non cancerous cyst , which relieved me but for the last 6 months it has gotten much larger in roundness and in height today i had a follow up exam and again the dr. said that its non threating and not to worry about it...what i have to say to the other guys posting here on google is ... dont be too scared if its just a cyst then its just a cyst.....i had a friend who had a ball removed due to testacle cancer and he was devasted(we all were) but thank the lord he alread has 2 healthy chrildren .. my gf is pregnant so thank god im not steril but im still not happy i have a lump where its not supposed to be....god bless and good luck everybody.. think positively
