  • does this chemotherapy, radiation are all high tech??

    guys,
    my name is srihari. i'm from india. My age is 21. Some 15-20 days before i had a very slight pain in my left testicle. It was barely noticable. I thought it might vanish. But it only got worse.
    Now i feel my testicles especially the left one to be heavy and my left lower abdomen is painful when i sit. I'm a software engineer and i masturbate some 4 to 5 times a week. I'm a virgin too.
    I'm very scared now. I now think, masturbation would be the reason for this pain. Or do i have cancer??? Guyz please help me. This is killing me. I could not sleep. I'm very shy to even tell this to anyone. Does my country have all these hifi stuff like ultrasound, chemotherapy etc etc??
    Please guyz, help me. eagerly waitin.. your reply would mean so much to me!!!

    check out this information on how to do a self exam. If after you do that you still think you have a problem go to a doctor. If your doctor thinks anything is wrong you medical community should have everthing you need to be taken care of. Remember testicular cancer is quite rare so you probably don't have it but it's best to be safe.

      hey thank you dadmo,
      Thank you very much for your info.. I did a self test of my testicles and did not find any lumps or anything.. But I'm going to consult a doctor tomorrow.. I still have got a dull pain in both my testicles and left abdomen. I can feel it very well.
      As all you guyz in the forum say its 'better to be safe than sorry', I'm going to consult a urologist. If you have any suggestions/advice, please post guyz..
      Thank you
      Srihari

        If the doctor can't find any lumps he may just send you home with a clean bill of health. Just do get concerned if he draws blood and sends you for an ultrasound, he may simply want to verify the all clear. Let us know how you make out.

            I went to a doctor today.
            He examined my testicles and said everything is completely normal.
            The reason he found out to be is..
            My left testicle is slightly lower than my left. Moreover i'm only around 120 pounds. I am not supposed to give more pressure to my legs. I used to drive a old 4 stroke two wheeler vehicle which is relatively hard to start for my physique. I also started doing excercise recently. Hence that resulted in my lower abdomen's nerves to contract which resulting in my pull up of left testicle which is lower.
            This is the reason he gave.
            I even asked him whether this is a cancer. He said he has been working in this field for 15 years and he assured that this definitely not a cancer for sure. But for my satisfaction he asked me take the routine tests : blood, urine. I insisted again. So again for my satisfaction, he asked me take ultrasound. The results will be coming soon. Will post it in a day or two.
            Thank you dadmo. I'm relieved now.
