I'm feeling a bit worried because I've been experiencing some discomfort in my left testicle. There's been no recent injury or anything like that, but it still hurts even with just a light touch. Should I be concerned about this?

I'm having a problem where my foreskin doesn't stretch properly because it never did from childhood. This makes sex really painful for me. I'm really worried and unsure about what to do. Can you give me some advice on how to deal with this?
You likely have a condition called phimosis, where the foreskin is too tight to retract; consult a urologist or a healthcare provider for a proper diagnosis and discussion of treatment options,
