I've been feeling a slight pain and discomfort right above my penis, like two fingers' width above, and it's a bit more to the left side. Plus, there's a heaviness in the area around my testicles. This has been going on for about two weeks now. Is this something normal or should I be concerned enough to see a doctor about it?

The symptoms you're describing, including slight pain above the penis, heaviness in the testicles, and a specific location of the pain, warrant medical attention; possible causes range from epididymitis, orchitis, or a groin strain to more serious conditions like testicular torsion or a hernia; schedule an appointment with a urologist or primary care physician for a proper evaluation and diagnosis.
