I heard that college age men are at risk for testicular cancer. According to the American Cancer Society most testicular cancers occur between the ages of 15 and 40, although this cancer can affect males of any age.
Testicular cancer is a highly treatable and curable form of cancer.
World class cyclist Lance Armstrong and Olympic skater Scott Hamilton are both survivors of testicular cancer. Most cases of testicular cancer can be found at an early stage. Men with testicular cancer often report a sensation of heaviness or aching in the lower abdomen or scrotum. Any testicular mass should be evaluated by a doctor without delay. It's best to do a self-exam after a bath or shower, when the skin of the scrotum is relaxed.
