freckles/flat moles on testicles
by jag65, Nov 05, 2001 12:00AM
I am a 27 year old male who recently noticed a series of about 7 completely flat moles/dark colored freckles on random parts of my testicles. These freckles/moles are smaller than 1cm in diameter and appear by themselves... not in clusters. I have never noticed these freckles before but I also never before checked my testicles this closely. Please inform me if I should be concerned.

When you start checking, for whatever reason, you start noticing all sorts of things you didn't know were there. I suspect these freckles have been there for years. They don't remind me of much. The best thing is to show a doctor next time you go. For the record, warts are usually in the penis, not the testicles.
