Okay, I seem to have a wee bit of a problem. As I was getting out of the shower about a month ago, I noticed that there was something inside my ballsack that shouldn't normally be there. I figured that the best course of action was to ignore it and it would go away, you know, like a schoolyard bully. Anyway, over the last month, it has grown considerably, rivalling the size of a testicle. I've felt around the area and it seems to be some sort of fluid sack with a lot of viens going into it or something. Its located just above the right testicle. So, what the hell is it? --UPDATE-- I got around to seeing a doctor today, and he, as I expected, did the usual gamut of nutsack tests and said "Well, I think its varicocele, but its pretty big, so I want to check it out a bit further." and scheduled me for an ultrasound. That was the first time somebody ever said "pretty big" in regards to anything involving my genitals. [Edited by - AnonymousPosterChild on April 5, 2006 2:40:54 PM]

could be the epididymis. but it's adviceable that you get your doctor to examine it if it's relatively new -> maybe cancer

It's your wisdom testicle. I thought we all grew those in our early twenties?

Just soak it in vinegar a bit every day and it'll be all good.

Don't bother going to doctor. Why would you let some med school nerd touch your genitals??

You need to go see a doctor ASAP. Its likley nothing but time is important if its something serious. If I were your girlfriend/wife I'd have you make an appointment right now-this second!

Ditto.

Could be a horrible side effect from taking too many "male enhancement" pills ...

on a more serious note, growing to the size of a testicle in about a month sounds like a rather aggressive cancer. much veins leading to it doesnt speak well for it either. you better hope it doesnt spread before you get it chopped off, or otherwise you wont live to see the release of DNF (LOL!!1)
