Feel Your Balls - One for the guys!

Self examination is a must for men.

Here's how to do it......

Grab your balls by your left hand and perform the following moves:

"Check for testicular cancer is after a warm bath or shower," says Martin Ledwick, information nurse manager at Cancer Research UK (cancerhelp.org.uk). That's when the scrotal skin is relaxed you're less likely to cause distress to passers-by.

"Hold your scrotum in the palm of your hands, so that you can use the fingers and thumb to examine your testicles," advises Ledwick. Note the size and weight of the testicles (you don't have to write this down). It is common to have one testicle slightly larger, or which hangs lower than the other. "But any noticeable increase in size or weight many mean something is wrong."

Feel the testicle itself. It should be smooth with no lumps or swellings – if you do find a swelling in your testicle, make an appointment and have it checked by your doctor as soon as possible.
