Get it checked. : You should have a physician perform a physical exam to locate and examine the testicle. Most people have a natural degree of testicular retractility, with the testicle sometimes closer or further away from the body. If, however, it is truly undescended, this condition is called cryptorchidism and should be examined by a physician, especially after puberty.

Orchiopexy: If the testis is truly undescended (not retractile), then an orchiopexy should be performed. It is generally done through a small groin incision with an additional incision in the scrotum. It is most commonly performed around 1 year old. Since you are 18, it is a bit of an unusual circumstance. Regardless, see a urologist.
