Answer 1

go to the doctor!

Answer 2

It's more likely to be a cyst.  All you need is a painless ultrasound to tell.

So tell your doctor.

Answer 3

Go to a doctor to be sure.  My nephew had this type of cancer and he was very young, in his early 20's.  It was bad but he is doing well now.

Answer 4

Get it checked out. Get it checked out!. Testicular cancer is one cancer that can and frequently does occur in young men. But before you freak out go to a doctor. Only they can tell you what is really going on.  

Answer 5

Go and get yourself checked out at the doctors. Even if it's not testicular cancer, it's best to have it checked out. I know from personal experience with family members how you're feeling. I have included some websites for you to have a look at.

Good Luck! I know what you're going through.

Answer 6

First of all don't panic I know 3  men  that have pain in their testicles all  turned out to be a varicose vein and the pain in your stomach is probably psychosomatic , due to you worrying . I have also known 2 young men in their early 20s who both had testicler cancer, and I am please to say they are both alive today , so the moral is go get it checked out  its probably nothing serious ,but  just in case it is go asap because caught earlier enough to can be completely cured good luck.

Answer 7

Answer 8

gday mate,

i think what u have cant be good, it might be something that needs to be taken out ie a growth. Speak to your doctor or a male friend. Dont worry about being scared of asking, this could be serious matie, take the plunge and ask ur dad or brother or someone that is close and go to the docks. Have a good one.

Answer 9

probably not, its more likely to be a cyst. the pain in your stomach is

more likely to be anxiety. however you need go to doctor for check up.

hot dinners.

but don't ignore it just in case.
