I am a male, 27 yrs old, 5 foot 9 inches tall, about 11 1/2 stone . I Had a scare in the middle of November when I found a lump on my testicle. I had it checked by 3 doctors so far, all of whome say I have nothing to be concerned of. I Also have an ultrasound scan coming up in 2 weeks which one of the doctors recommended just for my own comfort. However, Since the initial scare, I am serious having trouble sleeping, my eating and toilet patterns are way off, I have has stomach and abdominal pains, I have lost a little weight and generally feel pretty weak. I also in the last 5 days or so have been feeling a very strange tingling sensation on my scrotal area. Its not painful or itchy, there is no visible rash or anything to suggest a skin problem. Also when I urinate, its not painful, I have no burning sensations when I ejaculate. Could I be imagining the tingling sensation (its kind of like a very faint pins and needles)? One of the doctors I saw recommended some anti depressants to help me to sleep and calm anxiety. Does anyone have any more info?
Hello! Thank you for the query. It is good you will have an ultrasound as always in such case testicle cancer needs to be ruled out. Your abdominal problems may be caused by an anxiety caused by this lump, however it is also possible that you have a hernia which has reached the scrotum and is causing abdominal pain. You may also have bloating and diarrhea due to hernia. Hope this will help. Regards.
