Doctor Dr Karen Rajan has taken to TikTok to urge men to check their balls during a hot shower for any new lumps or bumps
Checking your balls regularly can help you understand what is ‘normal’ for you and make it easier to spot signs of testicular cancer.
Although many may not realise it, the disease is the most common cancer to affect young men aged between 15 to 49.
Around 2,300 men are diagnosed with testicular cancer every year in the UK, and while it can be treated if it’s caught early, it’s not always easy to know if you’re at risk.
The sooner your treatment begins, the greater your chance of recovery, which is why it’s important to look out for the warning signs.

One NHS doctor has taken to social media to reveal the best time of day to check your boys for any new lumps or bumps.
Posting to TikTok, Dr Karen Rajan said the best way to prepare for an inspection is to have a hot shower.
He explained in the video: “Have a hot shower, when it’s cold the dartos muscle in the scrotum contracts making it hard to have a feel of the crown jewels.
“But when it’s hot this muscle relaxes allowing you to have a better feel of the flesh marbles.”
The doctor added that this examination should take place at least once a month so you can spot any changes.
It is advised you visit your GP if you notice any swelling or a lump that’s growing in size or shape, even if it’s painless.
“When you feel at the top and back of the testicle, you will probably feel a lump. This is the epididymis, the tube that transports sperm,” he explained.
The health expert reassured men that it is completely normal for both testicals to be different.
“Usually the right hangs lower than the left and usually the left is bigger than the right,” he commented.
Previous research by GP service, Livi found that over a quarter (26 percent) of men have never checked themselves for testicular cancer.
Dr Rhianna McClymont, Lead GP at Livi told the Sun: “Testicular cancer, like any form of cancer, can strike at any age, but it’s more common in younger people, so we recommend beginning checks in puberty.
“If you notice any lumps or difference in the feel of your testicles, then it’s important to speak to a doctor to get checked out immediately.
“These symptoms are not a guarantee you have cancer, but they can be indicators, so it’s always vital to see a medical professional if you spot any signs.”
According to the NHS, symptoms of testicular cancer include:
-A painless swelling or lump in one of the testicles
-Any change in shape or texture of the testicles
-An increase in the firmness of a testicle
-A difference in appearance between one testicle and the other
-A dull ache or sharp pain in your testicles or scrotum, which may come and go
-A feeling of heaviness in your scrotum
