Third testicle or tumor ?
Posted: 01-10-08 03:13am

Hi, I'm 19 years old and have had this for a little over a month now.
It seems like a third testicle, same size, but connected to my right testicle. It is a harder then a testicle is, but not rock hard. It doesn't seem to be getting any bigger but its hard to tell. There is no pain at all.

Any idea what thing might be? I'm pretty worried about it! Do you need any more detail?

Thank You for your time, and for answering my question for free. I appreciate that!

Given your description of a hard, painless, testicle-size formation and the added complication of experiencing the sensation for more than a month in the scrotum, you could be experiencing some testicular tumor. I can’t speculate about the nature of a possible tumor, but you'll HAVE TO consult a urologist about this as soon as possible.
