VERY WORRIED and scared of telling parents

[jesse111555]

Hi im 15 and i just recently last night after taking a shower doing a self examination i discovered a small lump (most likely smaller then a pea hard to tell)
it was located on my left testicle near the top back portion where all the tubes are( It does feel like its attached to the testicle) can cysts be attached to your testicle? or are they only on the cord things?? Also im VERY afraid to tell my parents....

Could you give me ideas on how to tell them im either telling them today or tommorow but i really need some help on this??im not good with opening conversations AT ALL

ps: i ahd posted this in younger men but it seems as if no 1 really goes to that section so i re-posted it here...

You can also contact me at [email protected] if you have any ideas or if youve had same sort of problem please help me

also im very scared of cancer my grandpa died of cancer year ago (i saw him a month before he died he looked awfully ill i dont want that to happen to me)

HI ,
I would say that you should get it checked out ASAP by a DR .

AS for telling your parents :
All i can say is that the sooner you tell them the sooner you can get it checked out and a more clearer picture of your "pea sized lump" is all about . + they are your parents and the more support you have from the people who love you and the people you love will make it all that much more easier for you .

also im very scared of cancer my grandpa died of cancer year ago (i saw him a month before he died he looked awfully ill i dont want that to happen to me)

with what you stated above here about your grandpa , the sonner you tell your parents and the sooner you get it checked out you will have the results and then can relax.

Cheers m8
