Testi are very sensetive

---

hey guys, when i was born my tesis didnt descend into my scrotum by themselves, ive had 2 surgery when i was about 7 and 8, and now im 15, i have had my testis checked once every year by a doctor until i was 14 or so. i had just read a post about checking yourself for testicular cancer and it sed to hold ur testis between your thumb and index finger, when i do that, ANY pressure AT ALL on my testis HURTS like sum1 puched them.i doubt all guys have this sensitivity, since i had surgery on them, i dont know if the doc fucked me up and if it isnt normal, how am i gonna check for cancer? i cant barely hold them without feeling a deep sharp pain

I haven't heard of this before, and I think it's something for your doctor.

Testicular cancer is very rare in young people, but in later life you might have to take your chances, if they remain as sensitive as that. But perhaps they'll improve.

I haven't heard of this either, but you should definitely check with your doctor. You should have your doctor examine your testicles once a year anyway. Guys who had undescended testicles beyond age 1 or 2 have a much greater risk of developing testicular cancer later on. Since yours were undescended until age 7, you are in the high risk group for testicular cancer. Not trying to scare you - just keep a close eye on them, and do the TSE at least once a month, whether it hurts or not. Your doctor should make you aware of this too (being in a high risk group).

My testicals decended like they were supposed to. And I read probubly the same article u did, The article said start checking when ur about 15. I'm 16 and have checked a couple times and for me it hurt like a mofo to the first time. But after that It hastnt hurt as much, maybe I learned how to be more gental, I dont know.

Well, I think we all have sensitive testicles. All of us, whenever I grip my testis, it hurts a little, not at FULL FORCE, but almost as if I narrowly evaded a punch and just got a slap. Don't worry, I don't think you've got Testicular Cancer.

thanx, im a lot less worried now
