Patient's question:
I always feel unwell, so I went to the hospital for a comprehensive and thorough examination. The result was that the hospital was diagnosed with stage II testicular cancer. Could you please ask the doctor what are the general early symptoms of testicular cancer?Doctor's answer:
For the issue of early symptoms of testicular cancer, it is crucial to pay attention. You can check at intervals, such as after a shower or in the morning, by rubbing and feeling the testicles to see if there are any lumps. The testicles may also experience painless shrinkage. A cancerous testicle is like a slightly larger stone, hard and painless when pressed. It is usually unilateral, and the fluid in the scrotum may continuously increase. The most important thing to look for is whether there is a sensation of heaviness in the scrotum. Early-stage testicular cancer can be treated with a minor surgery, but if it is not detected early, it can become very troublesome. Testicular cancer spreads very quickly. For patients with urological diseases, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications. If treatment is delayed, it may affect overall health.
