Can doing masturbation every day lead to weak erections? Ive heard that excessive masturbation might have some side effects. Should I be worried if I'm experiencing this?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Excessive masturbation can lead to temporary weak erections, decreased libido, or desensitization, but it does not typically cause permanent damage; daily masturbation can lead to fatigue, decreased sensitivity, and potential negative impacts on relationships and daily life; other potential side effects of excessive masturbation include guilt, shame, anxiety, decreased focus, and neglect of responsibilities.

View allCan homeopathy really treat a grade 3 varicocele without surgery? How long does it usually take to see full recovery, and is it a permanent fix or just temporary relief? I'm worried about whether this will actually work long-term.
Homeopathy may help with symptoms, but evidence for treating grade 3 varicocele is limited. Surgery is usually more effective for long-term results.

I've been having this issue where every time I shake my penis, it gets this bulge on it. It's really odd because after about 8 hours, it seems to go back to its normal shape. This has been worrying me, and I'm not sure what to do. Can you help me figure out what's going on?
The bulge on your penis after shaking it, which resolves on its own within 8 hours, might be due to a condition called Peyronie's disease or trauma-induced swelling; apply ice packs, avoid vigorous shaking, and consult a urologist for proper evaluation and guidance to prevent potential long-term damag

I'm dealing with an 8mm kidney stone in the upper pole and a 9mm stone at the vesicoureteric junction. Is there any way to treat this without going through surgery, or is surgery my only option?
The 8mm stone in the upper pole kidney and the 9mm stone at the vesicoureteric junction (VUJ) may be treatable without surgery, depending on symptoms and stone composition; options include Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL) to break down the stones, or medical expulsive therapy (MET) with medications like alpha-blockers to help pass the stones naturally; however, consult a urologist to determine the best course of treatment based on your specific situation.
