Testicle cancer

I was wondering if I could get any help as I'm worried about testicular cancer. For a while now in my right testicle swelling comes and goes through the day, sometimes there is nothing on my testicle and the next it swells up. 
Is there anything I can do to help and do I need to go to the gp, also could this be cancer ? I had a blood test for general health about 6 months ago would it have shown up on that ? 
Any help would be good thankyou 

  • Hello and thanks for posting,

    Unfortunately, we are not able to suggest a diagnosis, or tell you what it is. You might have some inflammation or infection there, so do make an appointment to see your GP about it soon. Most of the time, there will be a straightforward medical explanation. Testicular cancer is in fact quite rare. But it is important to go and get checked out by a doctor, for peace of mind.

    There is some useful information here,

    I hope that it gets sorted out soon for you, 

    Best wishes,
