What is the self testing method for male genitalia

You can perform a genital self check while standing upright, leaning against the backrest, or sitting. It is best to do it after taking a hot bath, as heat can cause the scrotal skin to relax and the testicles to descend. This relaxation, as well as the easily touchable state of the testicles, can make it easier for you to detect any abnormal conditions. Firstly, pay attention to the cycle of contraction and relaxation of the cremaster muscle, and experience the cremaster reflex. Then check one testicle at a time. Place the thumbs of both hands above the testicles, and place the index and middle fingers below. Then apply a small amount of pressure to the testicles and let them roll between your fingers. The surface of the testicles should be quite smooth and sturdy in terms of hardness. Male testicles have individual differences in appearance and texture, so understanding one's own anatomy is important because only then can you detect any changes. Having two testicles allows us to directly compare, which helps detect abnormalities (although there is usually a slight difference in size between the two testicles). Some swollen or painful areas upon touch may indicate an infection. The epididymis is located behind each testicle and can sometimes be infected, causing tenderness when touched in irregular areas. In addition, touching the testicles with fingertips may not cause pain if some hard or irregular lumps are found. This lump may not be larger than a small pea, but it may indicate early testicular cancer. This type of cancer, although relatively rare, can progress very rapidly. Early detection and treatment are crucial for successful recovery. When checking your genitals, also pay attention to whether there are any abnormal changes in your penis. Any ulcer or abnormal lump on the surface of the penis may be a symptom of infection, sexually transmitted disease, or rare penile cancer. Although penile cancer is the rarest of all cancers, it is one of the most traumatic cancers, and without early diagnosis and treatment, it can quickly lead to death. Penile cancer usually begins with a small, painless ulcer on the glans penis, or similar lesions on the foreskin of males who have not undergone circumcision. Ulcers may remain unchanged for weeks, months, or even years until they become cauliflower like lumps, which are chronic inflammation with tenderness. It is clear that medical attention should be sought immediately after the first discovery of an ulcer, as there is still hope for a cure.
