Hi everyone, i just wanted to know what is meant by catching the cancer early?
Obviously i understand that dealing with the problem early is essential and will prevent it from spreading elsewhere. But i dont know what is categorised as being early. Are we talking months , a couple of years or does it all depend on the growth of the type of cancer?
I am a little bit concerned as i noticed i was a little bit sensitive in my left testicle for about 4 years, but assumed that it was normal to be sensitive in that region. I also thought that the very small lump was just a part of my anatomy and wasnt sure. It didnt seem to get much bigger over the 4 or so years.
I know i should have checked it sooner at the doctors but i just really didnt think it was anything to worry about.
Has anyone any views on this ?
