Hello, I am a teenager who is in need of a bit of online help. As I’m a bit embarrassed by the situation to talk to my parents, I would just like some help here!
So I have noticed an abnormal growth on the top of one of my testicles. It is a big and squishy growth which I don’t have on the other side, I’ve read that it is a fluid filled sack, inflamed veins and cancer. What should I do about this situation as well as what do you think this is?
Thank you!
Hello SomeRandomGuy I think you need to get this checked out by a doctor. I am not medically qualified but you are obviously worried and appear to have been on google. Try not to feel embarrassed; doctors are used to dealing with everything and have seen it all. It may turn out to be nothing to worry about but it's not worth risking your health because you feel embarrassed. As a starting point you could try the Ask a nurse service here on the MacMillan forum or on the phone or website and they will be able to give you medical advice. As a Mum I would also urge you to talk to your parents as they wouldn't want you to suffer in silence. Please get it checked
