How can male friends detect testicular cancer earlier

As the quality of life continues to improve, people no longer worry about food and clothing, but are becoming more and more aware of diseases. How to prevent diseases, how to detect diseases as early as possible, and how to treat diseases as soon as possible have become topics of concern to more and more people, which is a good phenomenon. Today, I will introduce to you how male friends can detect testicular cancer earlier.

Testicular cancer occurs in testicular tissue, has a complex pathological origin, and is relatively rare clinically, accounting for about 1% of all male malignant tumors. The main incidence population is young men in their fertility peak, so it has a relatively large impact on society. However, the cure rate of testicular cancer is very high, with a survival rate of 95% or even higher. Therefore, in the field of oncology, testicular cancer is a very important malignant tumor.

Symptoms of early testicular cancer include:

1. Testicular heaviness: Testicular heaviness is one of the symptoms of early testicular cancer. Since testicular tumors are formed by the massive growth of tumor cells, they are a substantial mass. When they grow to a certain size, the weight of the testicles increases suddenly, and the patient will feel heavy and fall, or even have difficulty walking. If you hold up the testicles with your hands, you will feel a certain weight.

2. Hard testicles: If you touch your testicles with your hands, they feel like rocks and are very hard. This is significantly different from the symmetrical swelling and soft texture of the testicles when the testicles are inflamed. Hard testicles are an important symptom of early testicular cancer.

3. Negative light transmission test: Symptoms of early testicular cancer also include negative testicular light transmission test. Generally, when hydrocele occurs, the light transmission of the renal capsule and testicles is enhanced, and the light transmission test is positive; however, when the testicular tumor grows densely and solidly, there is no fluid inside, and the light transmission is greatly weakened, showing negative results.

Male friends can check their bodies against the above symptoms. If there are any problems, go to the hospital as soon as possible to receive a doctor's diagnosis.
