i was diagnosed with testicular cancer in july and im only just about getting over it the surgery and the chemo. it is very rare for guys to develop it i think in the UK its about a 2% maybe less, but like the video says it is very curable, i found out i was living with my cancer for about 2 years before i even noticed any symptoms and got treatment, i was one of the unlucky ones not to develop the mass outside of the testicle wall, but inside so it was impossible to tell when checking 4 it.

Guys, I had TC &now do charity work on TC. Sum on here r scare mongering. It's v rare but it's on the increase. It DOESN'T HURT. catch it quick, thn it's highly curable. It's ONLY 99% survival rate AFTER the 5yr monitoring period. Orchidectomy is normally dun, tho now removal may NOT b needed, but more research is being done on that. Hope I've helped :-)

She got the statistics wrong. It's NOT 25-35 year olds it affects, it's from (realistically) 13-39 it affects. Even preteen kids can get it 2.

@DungeonGFX It's rare in your age group and I had a similar problem. It turned out to be a mere infection. Nothing more.

@blackopsfannatic hey man I have the same problem in my left testicle. I just turned 14 but the lump is most likely just to be the ball type thing on the sperm duct, at this age pain is very common im told. I'm far from an expert but I'm going to the gp tomorrow. You should do the same If your still worried

@160brick wait pal, so you had the cancer for 6 years? Or did you have it removed 6 years ago?

[knowthetruth1492]

I see the symptoms, but I have no health insurance :- (

The testes ,always a few degrees cooler than the rest of the body ,are an ideal location for cancer cells, but evidence suggests those cells die when they try to spread to other locations around the body. This leads Professor Robert Getzenberg and his colleagues to believe the cancer cells would respond well to heat treatment in what they call the "Lance Armstrong effect," after the seven-time Tour de France winner who famously beat testicular cancer.
