I have small lumps on my left testicle. Anyone know the diagnosis?

See a doctor. I dont have cat scan eyes or any of your blood work... How could anyone diagnose this via computer. GO TO YOUR DOCAs a testicular cancer survivor, I suggest that you do the "man exam," or self-exam for testicular cancer. There can be a lot of different symptoms, but testicle lumps are pretty common. Remember, the sooner a doctor can catch it the better the outcome, and most likely the less treatment will be required. The doctor's test is quick and painless, a simple ultrasound, so it's really no big deal going to the doctor. This site has links to credible testicular cancer resources, and shows the self-exam with a list of symptoms. Hopefully it's nothing serious. Good luck and take care.

Not sure. Testicular injuries usually cause referred pain in most cases, so that isn't really pertinent. I would get a second ultrasound done if I were you. Schedule an appt with a urologist's office, preferably for your situation an office that has ultrasound capabilities.

The ER is a good idea, but they're not really proficient in urology. Also, ER's don't usually have a urologist on staff, or rarely on call, at least not that I've seen. You sure it was a urologist, not the regular emergency dept physician? Like I said, go to a urologist's office. They see this stuff daily, and you might want another ultrasound. I know I would.
