thanks, but if it was a tumor would it be something painful? because i dont feel any pain at all, but something that alarms me is that its on the side of my testicle! and ive seen information that says that testicular cancer forms at the sides of the testicle! any idea of what i may have?Comment

from what i understand, tumors with TC are often painless. you should have a urologist check you outComment

umm.. but if it was a tumor would it stay atached to the testicle? because as i said when i sit down it feels like if the bump is gone! so well at least it makes me think it isnt atached to the testicle because of this! im 17 years old if it helps.. and i started feeling this like since i was 12, but i kind of let it pass! any more ideas?Comment

umm ive been looking for information about varicocele and i think thats what i have, as it mentioned that it was easier to be felt in standing position, it causes a dull ache, and it feels like swollen conducts, well thats what varicocele is lol. thanks a lot for the guys who answered, and if you have further comments please post them! i think ill go check a doctor now, and i feel confident that it isnt cancer!
Oh and what makes me almost sure it is in fact varicocele is that in 85% of the cases it forms in the left testicle! and thats where i feel it! and it also says that it forms around puberty! thanks again guys!Comment
