I have recently been reading about testicular cancer as one of my testicles feels weird at times. Just has a feeling, not pain, just a feeling. Its slightly bigger than my other, and hangs slightly lower.

I have done the self examinations, and both seem smooth all over, apart from the tube which runs ub the back, and seems to have a large connecting bit at the top of each testicle. The one on the testicle in question, the bigger one, has a bigger tube and at the top it is quite big. I can feel the tube on the other testical, but its not as big. Is this normal?

I also get random pains in my sides, and sometimes get pain when urinating. I have been to the doctors about five times, had urine tests etc etc and he felt my sides/back and said I was fine. All urine tests came back clear.

I have also just done exams, and I get random pains in my sides and back, and I keep having this feeling in my testicle. I keep looking at it to see if there are any signs of lumps but its never the case.

I think its all in my mind now, as I am always thinking about it maybe I am imagining all these pains with the stress of exams and worry about my testicles... its not real pain in my sides/back/lower abdomen, just random little pains, or aches....

I think all this reading about cancer has scared me, what do you think?

Um...... i'm not a guy so i don't exactly know what they should or should't feel like but ifyou have been to the Dr. has he performed an exam for you? From what i read, there is almost always a lump but if your still uneased about it, why don't you have your DR. do an exam for you , if for nothing but your own piece of mind. I can shed a little light on the differece in the size as my hubs are different from time to time. It's like a womans' breast, most of us can agree that one s bigger than the other. It's probably nothing but if it'll help ease your mind go see your doc and have him check ya out.
