New odd lump / ballon

[JOTA]

OK I am really really tired so need to make this quick. Sorry if there is a lack of details. I had my right testicle removed and am 4 days away from having my radiation therapy being done. Well I was felling down there and there is something that seems weird. I can feel where the cords and soforth are at that used to be attached to the testicle. Well just recently I have felt what feels like a small (quarter sized or so) fluid filled balloon at the end of those cords. I will be getting to the doc ASAP but my car is broken down. I was just wondering if anyone here could explain this to me. Thank you. If more info is needed I will post in the morning.

That sounds completely normal -- a hematoma (collection of blood) that will gradually be absorbed by the body. I had the same thing. Some call it "the grape."

Just seems odd. It has been like 1 1/2 months since surgery and this was not there after surgery. Is this something that just develops latter?

[Scott]

Hmmm, I'm not as sure about what it is if it took this long to appear. When is your next appointment?

[JOTA]

Don't have one but will be trying to get in ASAP.

JOTA, this isn't the same thing you posted about in this thread?

Where are you now with treatment and follow-up?

Sorry. Had surgery, and on about day 27 of 30 days of radiation. Been meaning to come here and post but just kept forgetting. Very sorry.
