A man too embarrassed by a huge swelling on one of his testicles had his cancer misdiagnosed as kidney trouble.
When Daniel Simpson went to the doctor about the bad back pain he had been suffering for a year, he was too shy and only “16 or 17” at the time, to mention the “huge swelling” on his testicle.
This meant, without all the information, the doctor instead thought the pain was as a result of something else. He was wrongly diagnosed with a kidney infection, Hull Live reported.
