I'm really worried about something that happened recently. My friend accidentally hit me really hard in the testicles, and it hurt a lot. Do you think this could affect my sperm count? If so, how much? I'm not sure what to do next and could really use some guidance.

Any temprorary injury has less chances to have effect on sperm count. If you have any swelling or severe pain or redness kindly consult Doctor.

Had circumcision surgery a month ago on May 5th but still can't wear underwear directly using cotton to cover it. The stitches haven't dissolved yet and there's high sensitivity in the open area, plus some pain when touching the stitches. How much longer until it heals completely and I can get back to normal?

Wear loose clothing for example: pyjamas, tracksuit bottoms for the first few days. It is advisable to try and avoid wearing underwear, do so until you feel comfortable enough to resume wearing them. It is advisable especially if your work is heavy (manual, driving) to stay off work for at least one week.
