View allI'm experiencing something odd when I go to the bathroom. Occasionally, I find myself short of breath while I'm urinating. It's not a constant issueit last happened about five months ago, and it's only occurred a few times in total. I don't have any medical history that might explain this. Could you give me some idea of what might be causing this and what remedies I might try? Also, if you think I should see a specialist, what kind of doctor would be best to consult?
Shortness of breath during urination can occasionally happen due to a vagal nerve response, anxiety, or even bladder issues. If it's infrequent and no other symptoms exist, it's usually harmless. However, consult a urologist or general physician to rule out underlying causes like prostate or cardiovascular concerns.

I'm concerned about whether masturbation can lead to urethral stricture or any other issues. I've been masturbating and I'm wondering if there are any negative effects I should be aware of. Can you shed some light on this?

It is important to practice good hygiene and use lubrication to prevent any potential irritation. If you experience any pain or discomfort during or after masturbation, it is advisable to consult a healthcare provider. There are generally no serious long-term effects of masturbation. In fact, it can have some health benefits, such as stress relief and improved sleep. It is a normal and healthy sexual activity.
