HMC-High Cure Rate-Testicular Cancer-Catch Early

Hamilton Medical Center, located in Dalton, Georgia, partners with a local Urologist (on staff at Hamilton) to bring you this message about testicular cancer. Testicular cancer is a painless lump in the testicle. Cancer is most common in 18 -- 35 year old males. Regular self-exams are important (similar to females who do self breast exams). Early detection is the key. When caught early, the cure rate is very high. Embarrassment must be overcome -- see a physician immediately; the tumors are often fast growing.
