So about six months ago the epididymis on one of my tesiticles started to hurt. It was bad enough that I could feel it when I walked and when I ran, and it hurt pretty bad when I felt it with my hand. I was kind of freakin out and went and saw a doctor. He said it was probably no big deal and would go away on its own. Well, the pain went away after about a week, but the epididymis never went back to normal size and remained quite a bit larger and harder than the other one. It didn't hurt at all so I didn't worry about it. However, about a week ago it started hurting again and it's especially large and hard. I'm young, so I don't think it's cancer, and it's not torsion otherwise my nut would be dead by now, so I'm guessing it's just an infection of some kind, but I was wondering if anyone has had this before? I hate going to student health because the nurses are usually girls I've had classes with, but it's either that or shell out $70 up at the hospital.
