Typically, patients present to their doctor with a painless lump in one or both testes. Occasionally, there may be a heavy or aching sensation in the testes. In advanced cancer, other symptoms may be present, for example, if cancer has spread to the lungs, there may be shortness of breath.
If you notice a lump, swelling, or changes in the size or shape of a testicle, experience persistent pain or discomfort, feel heaviness, or observe fluid buildup in the scrotum, seek medical advice. Additionally, symptoms such as back or abdominal pain, or a general feeling of unwellness, should also prompt a visit to the doctor.
Early detection and treatment of testicular cancer significantly improves outcomes, so it is important not to ignore any worrying symptoms.
