OK, I found a bump on my testicule, what should I do ?
- You may not have cancer. It could be something else, like a cyst. In any case, if you feel a lump on your testicule or if you have feel anything abnormal, you should go and have it checked out. If it’s nothing, then you’ll be able to get rid of that stressful doubt. If it is cancer, going quickly could save your life.
- If you have ANY doubt, you should go see a doctor near you. You can go see your family doctor or you can go to a walk-in clinic. That doctor will get you to see the right person. You can also go to the emergency.
- Just go see a doctor right away.
