<b>Kahoonas, balls, nuts: When was the last time ‘the boys’ were examined? </b>

According to findings presented at the American Urological Association 2012 annual meeting, more than one-fourth of adolescent and adult males between 15-45   have <b>not</b> had a testicular exam during a routine physical in the past twelve months. That’s not good: men in this age bracket are at the highest risk of testicular cancer.

Common symptoms of testicular cancer include:
<ul>
	<li>Discomfort or pain in the testicle</li>
	<li>Pain in the back or lower abdomen</li>
	<li>Enlargement of a testicle</li>
	<li>Lump or swelling in the testicle</li>
	<li>A feeling of heaviness in the scrotum</li>
</ul>
Testicular cancer is one of the most treatable and curable cancers — when caught early. See a physician if you have one of the aforementioned symptoms and don’t forget to perform self-exams. Seriously.
