  • A couple of questions.

    Ok so a couple of months ago maybe in Nov or very late October one of my testicles was hurting. Well the pain has went down a lot but every once in awhile I get this small pain but it's really nothing. Also im ignorant of what a "Lump" is so if someone could elaborate about what it is and what it feels like it would be very helpful. My final question is how long does testicular cancer take to kill you?

    Oh and this is very embarrassing for me but I do some sexual acts with what are probably some very dirty objects and im thinking I might of gotten some kind of infection. (My right testicle is slighty larger)

      MHossa:
      You probably don't have testicular cancer but you may very well have some sort of infection. There is no form of sexual activity that will cause testicular cancer. I have attached a link to a tc site which can answer all of your questions including how to do a proper self examination (http://tcrc.acor.org/). The fact that your problem might not be cancer related should not keep you from seeing a doctor.

        One more question would a cyst make one of your testicles feel different?

          Yes a tresticular cyst will effect the way the testicle feels.
