A grandfather with a huge 20-year-old ‘neck testicle’ lipoma finally had the large mass removed from his throat.

John from the US has been living with an enormous lump on his neck for twenty long years.

“My bump first showed up shortly after me and my wife got married, about 19 years ago,” John shared.

“’I’d been shaving and I noticed there was a knot that had starting forming, it felt like the size of a golf ball, then it started getting larger.”

Over the past twenty years, the large mass has grown into a squishy, tennis-ball-sized lump hanging from his throat.

It became so enormous that the grandfather of one had to make adjustments in his sleeping routine as he feared the mass would block off his airway.

“I cannot sleep in my own bed at night, I’m sleeping on the couch,” John said. “If I lay too flat it changes the sound of my voice, I can feel it where it just lays flat on my windpipe; it feels like the bump is cutting off my airway.”

John admitted that he was skeptical of Midwestern doctors. “I went to a physician that wanted to perform surgery on it, he told me they could cut the wrong vessel and I could be possibly be paralysed on one side of my face. That kind of scared me away, so I just let it go.”

The grandfather praised the love and support he has received from his family but reveals that some members of their family have not been very kind.

“My extended family, I don’t see eye-to-eye with them,” John expressed. “I get tired of being made fun of. They’ve said it ‘looks like your nuts are hanging off your chin!’”

“I’ve got to get this off me so I can get my life back,” he added.

After checking her patient, Dr. Sandra Lee aka Dr. Pimple Popper said that she might know what the problem is.

“John has what I believe is a large lipoma right in the middle of his neck, and there are a lot of important vessels that go to our head and back to our heart, like your jugular. There are many ways that you could really threaten somebody’s life with a little slip of the scalpel,” she said.

After the surgery, a delightful John said: “Hot damn, I look damn good now! It’s flat, it’s not this circle, it’s not this bulge, it’s not hanging down, it’s gone! I’ll be going more places, we’ll be doing more things as a family.

“I came here today thinking that this was never going to happen and she found it, it was hiding!”
