Mmm what is wrong?

[anopanjo]

Hey,

The other day, about 4 days ago my testicals went fairly hard, not as hard as a brick but they are still quite hard, but harder than before! It happened the same day i accidentally gave my self an accidental tap on the testicles but i don't think that its the cause! Anyways is there anything wrong with this? will it go down after time, my testicles haven't gotten any bigger in the last 4 days but im wondering if its cancer or anything? Pls help me, i don't want to go to the doctor and he says i have cancer! Im 15 for god sake....

It's quite possible that it's just a bruse. Keep checking and if it doesn't return to normal in a few days give your doctor a call.

hey!!! there is a lot of other disease...wait few days can't change nothing but if I was you i should go immediatly to a doc. Not because of a cancer but if there is something wrong in your body is better to know what is wrong! Maybe an epydi....(i don't rembember in english) and you need only an antibiotic.
...the exams to check the testis, if you will need it, are painless at all...
good luck and take care!

thankyou for the comments! Im seeing the doctor tonight and im really scared! Just for the reason that it could be cancer! i really dont want it like im 15, for those with cancer and who had it young and lost testicals what is everyday life like and are we expected to live the same amount of time?

Great job getting to the doctor but you're jumping the gun a bit by assuming it's cancer. If it should be tc your everday life afterwards will have extra meaning and the years will be just as long. High School will still Su**.

I went to the doctor and he said everything was fine! So thats good! I may just be confused, how hard are they meant to be, im growing up so maybe thats just what it is? Dont want to sound weird but how hard are yours? If anyone wants to share,

Thanks heaps for the help!

Mine is quite hard i suppose and doesn't have much "give" to it but the doctor says its fine so i take his word!

This hardness question comes up every now and again and I really don’t have an answer. Are they supposed to be as hard as a plum, hard-boiled egg (without the shell), tennis ball? Since most of us have never checked any but our own it's not easy to make a comparison.
