Question 1

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?

Accepted Answer

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.
