Well, you shouldn't get erect when they are fondling your balls.

Good luck with this and hopefully you get the US and see a specialist so you'll have some peace of mind.

Just got the ultrasound referral. Still have to schedule the imaging session since they don’t take walk ins for advanced imaging.

What’d your GP say?

Got the ultrasound done yesterday evening. The radiologist tech said the radiology report would be uploaded to my health portal within the next 48 hours because it isn’t considered “urgent” and they have to get through all of the trauma and ER imaging before the routine imaging

The ultrasound was uncomfortable as hell. The gel they used wasn’t cold, but that wand-device they use was awful. It felt like my balls were being crushed

Radiologist tech said it was just a cyst based on what she saw from the images, and she’s probably seen thousands of images so I’ll take her word for it. Still has to be confirmed by the radiologist

I had my scrote ultrasounded when i thought i had testicular cancer. Turns out it was just a prostate infection. If youve never had a prostate infection, it feels like you got kicked in the jewels but it doesnt go away. Very unpleasant ultrasound

hope is that it’s just an epididymal cyst. The lump is right on top of the epididymis


I'm 50 had same exact thing. Ran some scan and it was just a cyst or the epididamus like you said. Also I think it's very treatable

The report came in finally. Radiologist confirmed it’s a benign cyst so it’s all good. Said if it causes any pain/discomfort then go see a urologist and inquire about getting an epididymectomy although one of the big risks of that is infertility so it’s rarely recommended

I have a lump in my right testicle and I have a doctor's appointment next week. Mine is much larger than a pea. I also have certain thigs happen to me before I found the lump. My testicle with the lump hurts sometimes. My testicle sack hurts and it feels sore. My penis also hurts and it has a burning sensation. My testicle sack feels sore and it has a burning sensation too. The pain is not a I can't stand it pain. What a great year I'm currently having. I might have cancer of the balls and I found out that I have cirrhosis of the liver. It's a bitch getting old. What ever happens,happens. I'll be damned if a ailment dictates my life.

It’s a hard small lump that they confirmed was just a cyst. Said it’s super common in young males and that the majority aren’t cancerous
