شاب يسأل عن الفحص الذاتي للخصية. أي تعليم صحيح؟

A young man asks about testicular self-examination. Which teaching is correct?

1. Yearly at the doctor only, with no need for self-exam
2. Only when severe pain occurs, not on a regular basis
3. Monthly after a warm shower, reporting any painless hard lump
4. Right after waking when the skin is cold and tight

Answer: C) Monthly after a warm shower, reporting any painless hard lump. Testicular cancer is commonest in young men and usually presents as a painless hard lump. Monthly checks after a warm shower are easier as the scrotal skin is relaxed.
