I'm really worried about something that happened yesterday. After I masturbated and ejaculated, my penis went numb and shrank. The foreskin got really loose, and it feels super short and cold now. I can't quite feel it right, and I'm also feeling really dizzy and depressed. I'm attaching a picture of my penis for you to check. Is there something wrong, and can it be fixed?
