I'm a bit concerned after having sex for the first time this past Friday night. I've noticed some pain in my penis because the skin seems to have peeled. The front part has gotten pretty red too. The pain's a bit better than a couple of days ago, but it's still there. Do you have any advice on what I should do?

To alleviate the discomfort, apply a topical antibiotic cream, keep the area clean, and avoid further irritation if the pain persists, or you experience difficulty urinating, increased redness, or swelling, consult a urologist for further guidance.

I'm a bit worried about my left testicle because it hangs much lower than the right one and there's a burning sensation. I've read about bell clapper deformity and how it might lead to testicular torsion. Also, I've been diagnosed with bilateral grade 1 varicocele. I'm wondering if I might need surgery for this or if it can be managed with medicine. Could you help clarify this for me?
