  • a year and a half since gone to urologist

    im 16 and am starting to get pains in my right testicle, about a year and a half ago I found a lump on my testiicle i told my parents and went to the doctor who sent me to a urologist who said it was a collection of fluid, I then went back to the doctor a few months later and he recomended another urologist just to be on the safe side, that urologist also said it was not cancerous but now a year later it still remains and sometimes bothers me with pain. now what should i do? thanks

    I'd give your urologist another call and see what he suggests.

      You certainly should have that checked again. I don't think the 2 urologists are wrong but they need to address the pain issue. Let us know what they tell you.

          Mention the lower back pain but it's probably nothing. It's amazing what seems to go wrong when you think you have a problem, all sorts of unrelated things seem to happen.

              Keep bugging the urologist. They really need to get you pain free, of course that may require a minor operation.
