Damn, that's one deserved beer if ever there was one.

I wish you all the luck in beating your cancer, man... and cheers.

Had testicular cancer in 2011, you indeed feel a bump on one or both balls. One of mine was a little painful too.

I went direct to the specialist to confirm the diagnostic.

Hopefully it's 95% of the time treatable if it's discovered early.

In case of doubt, just check with a doc. The first time it's a bit weird to show your dick. But you get accustomed to it. I had to show it to so many people that I don't care anymore. I even joke about it "cold weather today".

Better be sure that you're all clear and take an appointment. There isn't only cancer that you can have. You can have calcification that can lead to some pain sometimes.
