Testicular Cancer

tutoneppis · Jan 20, 2009

This is a serious post, there is nothing funny about cancer. But 3 week ago this women came to my school to talk to our year about testicular Cancer(Her son died from it or something). Me and my mates we all joked around, but there where a few worried faces in the room.
About a week ago I found the leaflet the lady gave us so I decided to check my balls I noticed I had something on my right testical I couldnt really tell what it was, so yesturday I got the courage to tell my mum about it and we went to my Doctor.

Anyways back to the point of the thread, alot of young people get the symptons for testicular cancer but ignore it before its too late. A lump doesnt automatically mean you have cancer but I advice you to go see you GP/Doctor. Also young people are very embarrased to share this with anyone even their own parents.

I just advice you to go see your GP.

(No I dont have the Cancer)

Everything you need to know on it if you worried,

You should see you local GP, they will forward you onto either a physician or a urologist.

You're probably overreacting man. It's only because it was mentioned to you, did you start to think you might have it.

I guess a trip to the doctor wouldn't hurt though, just to be safe, if you really think you do have it.

The doctor checks for it when you have a physical. Thats what the coughing with your pants down is about... One thing I learned in health class... >.<
