You will get signs such as abnormal shape and enlargement, mine went to the size of my fist your doctor would then take bloods tests to check your tumour markers. If they suspect cancer a biopsy will be then taken and removal of the testicle
Once a month, a man should do a testicular self exam to check for any anomalies. It is best to do this at the end of a long hot shower, standing up. Simply take your fingers and gently examine the surface of each testicle. They should feel like a boiled egg without the shell. At the top and back of each testicle, it should feel like there are connective tissues which some people say feels like cooked spaghetti. If you feel any lumps anywhere else, you should see your doctor. There is typically no pain or discomfort with testicular cancer in the early stages, so a self exam is important.
As a rule, testicle pain is not usually an indication of testicular cancer because the presence of a tumor is not usually painful. You should regularly do a self examination though to make sure you do not have any lumps.
If left untreated, it WILL kill you. Probably within a year or less. But the good news is if it's caught early, it has a 98-99% cure rate and usually doesn't interfere with fertility.
Pain in your testicles, lump on one of them, Hard time peeing.
Only a doctor can decide if you have testicular cancer.
Yes, you can get testicular cancer.
See your doctor.
For people with one undescended testicle who develop cancer, the undescended testicle is the one that has the cancer 80% of the time. Since the descended testicle can develop cancer 20% of the time, removal of the undescended testicle is rarely performed anymore as it used to be. Careful examination of the testicles is important, especially in someone who has history of an undescended one. Hope this helps! Dr. B.
He had testicular cancer
Lady gaga is a girl, they can't have testical cancer.
Yes, that is the primary treatment.
Congenital absence of a testicle is not usually a problem. But an undescended testicle is a problem that needs to be fixed. If the testicle stays in the abdomen, a condition called cryptorchidism, it can lead to infertility and cancer.
Depends. Sometimes yes, sometimes no. Severity of the cancer plays into this.
Any bump or knot on the testicle need to be looked at by a doctor. Could be nothing, could be cancer. Go to the doctor, ASAP.

A Testicle should NEVER swell! If either of yours is swelling, see a Doctor immediately!! It could be Testicular Cancer which can kill you!!
As long as he has one fully functioning testicle, yes, you can have kids. Take Lance Armstrong for example. He has several kids and he lost one testicle to testicualr cancer.
Not if only one testicle is removed. You can produce sperm just fine with only one testicle
An orchiectomy is sometimes done to prevent cancer when an undescended testicle is found in a patient who is beyond the age of puberty.
