Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am 19 years old and my height is 5.7 feet. I am suffering from a lump in my left testicle. I mean the bottom of my left testicle is hard in a small part. So please advise me on what I can do. Which doctor treats this problem sexologist or a urologist?

Answered by Dr. Karthik Rajan

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I have gone through your query. I would like to know a little more about your problem to get a better idea of it. Did you sustain any injury recently to the scrotal area? Is there any pain in the scrotum or testis? Do you feel any dragging sensation, like something pulling on your scrotum? It is very difficult to give a clear diagnosis without actually examining you in person in these situations. But a hardness in the testis area at your age is not a normal finding. It can just be a fluid collection or some lump that needs to be checked out with a detailed physical examination.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
