Hi there male in early 30s I am 320 pounds so a large man

I have a big pubic fat pad but i notice on one side of beside my left testicle there is fat.. Its not hard or a lump or unmovable or anything or a hernia as far as I know

Is this normal there is fat on the right side but more on the left around the testicle .

Will this go away as I loose weight and is it anything to worry about?? Everything is working normal testciles both feel the same etc no lumps or growths

No pain just the odd niggle here and there ..

Thanks in advance.

Am currently reducing my weight and doing exercise

Anyone ? been worried for a few days on and off about it
ALSO hasnt got any worse in the last year.. must be a dr or someone on here who can tell me if you can get fat beside your testicles from your fat pad.. thanks

It's an interesting question, and one that you should be posing to your doctor.

It occurs to me that you might be describing a Variocele, which is simply an extended vein that usually hangs in the scrotum on the left side. It is due to a quirk of the blood vessel plumbing, and is normally not a problem.  IF this is the case, a Variocele will NOT go away from dieting or loosing weight.  But it will vanish temporarily, if you lay down and then look/feel for it, as the blood returns to the body instead of pooling in the distended veins.  A Variocele could also be transilluminated by a penlight in a dark room.

But the question about fat migrating into the scrotum near the testicle is beyond my experience.

 


Good luck with the weight loss.  Stick to it.

Did you ever lose weight to see if it was a hernia or not? I'm having the same worries..
