I've been dealing with some weird side effects from years of masturbating, like joint pain, weaker bones, hair fall, especially around my shoulders which feel weak, and fatigue, and even some pain in my lower back and abs. I stopped for a month, but this morning I had an episode in my sleep, and now I'm back to feeling weak with bone pain and fatigue. What should I do? Any advice would be really helpful right now.

It sounds like your body is reacting to the strain of frequent masturbation. It's important to listen to your body and give it time to recover. Focus on staying hydrated, eating nutrient-rich foods, and getting rest. If symptoms persist, consider speaking to a healthcare professional for personalized advice.

My penis is currently 5 inches long and 4 inches around, but I'd like to increase it to 7 inches in length and 6 inches in girth. Are there any safe surgical options to achieve this? I'm open to considering surgery if it's effective and reliable.

It is normal ,nothing to worry.If still facing issues please consult dermatologist.

I'm a 25-year-old guy with tight foreskin that hurts when I pull it back. Surgery isn't something I want to consider right now are there other ways to manage this?

Topical steroid creams and gentle stretching may help phimosis and frenulum breve; surgery like preputioplasty is minor and effective if needed.
