im 16 and i have a lump on my right testicle and hearing all of these stories is scaring me. im going to get it checked out soon but im wondering if it is testicular cancer, what happens? do they always have to remove it? =[

the lump or the testicle? go to the doc. it could be nothing, but if it is cancer, you want it removed, or you may not live long enough to legally drink your beer.

i am 15 years old and recently noticed a lump in my right testicle. Is it possible that i could have testicular cancer at my age, i’m really worried, should i seek help?

Hi – the first thing to do is NOT worry! There are other possible causes and finding a lump does not necessarily mean Cancer. The NEXT thing to do is phone your DOCTOR and make an appointment. They may even see you today if you say it’s an emergancy. The reason to be quick is that in the unlikely event that it is cancer, testicular cancer is treatable and survival rates are high, particularly if caught early. But yes, it is possible to have testicular cancer at 15, although it is extremely rare. Get an appointment today and please keep us posted – let us know you’re OK. If you don’t know who your doctor is or can’t make an appointment for some reason, let us know.

Dr. Stephen Cohen of Chesapeake Urology Associates talks about his personal experience with testicular cancer and not hesitating seeking professional help.
