I'm experiencing a weird vibration sensation in the tip of my penisit's not painful, just really annoying. I haven't had unprotected sex or anything, but I do have a spinal issue from L1 to L5, where my spinal cord and nerves get compressed. Could this vibration be a new symptom related to my back problem, or should I be concerned about an infection? It's starting to worry me a bit.
