I've been experiencing some tender pain at the top of my left testicle, and sometimes it even seems like the shape of it isn't quite round. Walking or touching that area makes the pain worse. I'm not sure if I should see a gynecologist or if a general physician would be the right person to talk to. What do you think I should do?

You should consult a urologist, not a gynecologist, as they specialize in male reproductive health; a general physician can provide an initial evaluation, but a urologist is better equipped to diagnose and treat potential issues like epididymitis, orchitis, testicular torsion, or varicocele; schedule an appointment to discuss your symptoms and undergo a physical examination to determine the cause of the pain and abnormal testicular shape.

I've been having this issue where the foreskin of my penis tears during sex. It happens when I'm aroused and the foreskin folds back, resulting in itching and sometimes even bleeding. What could be causing this, and what should I do about it?

You cant remove it.if it is painful or unable to retract the foreskin,then that could be phymosis for which you have to visit your surgeon for appropriate management.
