Started Lifting Weights. Noticed A Lump On Testicle. Strained Something There?
Question: IM 55 YEARS OLD I STARTED LIFTING WEIGHTS LAST WEEK,THIS MORNING IN THE SHOWER I NOTICED A LUMP ON MY TESTICAL ABOUT THE SIZE OF A DIME WHERE MY TUBES ENTER THE TESTICAL.iS IT POSSIBLE THAT I STRAINED SOMETHING DOWN THERE?
Dear,
It is very much possible that the swelling you are feeling is a hernial sac which has developed secondary to lifting heavy weights. You need to see a general surgeon and get yourself examined by him to rule out the same.
Till you see him, kindly refrain from lifting weights as your problem may get aggravated.
I hope I have answered your query.
Regards.
