tell your parents. act like a mature man not a boy! if you found a lump in your testicle that is concerning you (as it should) have it checked out by a professional. namely a urologist. this is why we have insurance my friend. your parents need to know so tell them now! you are worried about something serious like testicular cancer i assume and this type of cancer although relative rare tends to hit younger men including those of your age. there are numerous other non-cancerous reasons for a lump but you should never rely solely on internet resources or advice from your non-medically-trained friends when it comes to making critical medical decisions. be a man and get it checked out.
17 years old with a lump on left testicle what do i do now? . 1. 5 months ago i began to feel a slight lump in my left testicle. the lump is not considerably bigger but seems to have spread over a larger area of the testicle. the night before last i started feeling a very slight aching in my left groin area it seems to be related to my testicle but i can't be sure. i don't feel like i can just tell my parents about this. i would like to know if there's another way i can get it checked out by a professional before telling my parents. any advice is appreciated.
