Lump On The Testicle. Concerned About Cancer Chances
Hello, I have a lump on my right testicle , right on the top pole, its is like a floppy BB pellet, I am going to see a gp tomorrow, i was just wondering if you give me any clues as to what it might be now, as just to make it easyier to sleep as i want to know what else it could be apart from cancer . ( i first really noticed it after having sex with my girlfriend i had a sharp pain in my right tesicle that the subdued after about 5 minutes so i felt around and found this lump)

Hi,
you should have a testicular ultrasound. chance of malignancy is very less as generally malignant testicular swelling is not associated with tenderness. you may be suffering from teticular torsion or epididymitis. consult with surgeon. Take care.
