I need help...?
Question:
I dont know if im healthy or anyhting im 13 years old 5 feet tall and 88 pounds, one of my testicles hangs lower than the other one its freaking me out.
Answers:
At your age of 13, your weight is probably right where it should be. Nothing to worry about there. As for your lower hanging testicle...that is 100% normal. You will hardly ever find a male where both his testicles hang the same length. The theory behind this is the different hanging length keeps them from banging together while moving. Kind of makes sense, doesn't it?
A check up/physical is nothing to worry over. You height and weight will be taken. You will also have your blood pressure taken. The reflexes in your knees and/or arms will be tested as well as the mobility in those extremities. You will also have your abdomen felt around on to check for hernias and obstructions and just to check for the general well being of that part of your body.
Possibly the worst part, if there is one, is when the doctor will check for hernias in your scrotum. Most likely you will be either asked to take your pants/underwear off and to stand. The doctor will kneel before you and he/she will feel the sides of each testicle as well as underneath and on top. The doctor will also have you cough in order to detect any bulging. My suggestion is just to stay calm and relax and know that every guy will probably have this done, multiple times in his lifetime.
I may also suggest that you go into the exam room alone, especially if your mother takes you in for the appointment.
I hope my answer has helped you get the answer you are looking for!
Good Luck!:)
u will be okay kid. go have a physical if u need one it wont hurt.
don't worry all of those things are completely normal... i just went in for a physical and had most of those problems... it's ok about ur weight too thats normal.
Yes!! You should DEFINITELY have a checkup! Especially if you have things that are driving you crazy. You're way too thin, and there's the testicle problem. Have your mother read this, so she'll take you to the doctor. Good luck. :)
