I had surgery at 18 for a urinary infection that left my penis deformed. Now at 33, my penis is only about an inch when erect even when watching films, and my testicles don't react they're very small and don't seem to function. I feel tense with a fast heartbeat when aroused, and while there's some blood flow, my penis stays small. I'm always inactive and worried about this. Could this be hormonal or related to my past surgery? What could be causing this lack of response?

View allI've been having this throbbing pain in my groin that starts from the lower right side of my abdomen and radiates down to my scrotum. It began with intense lower back pain on the right side, spreading to my thighs and then the groin sometimes it's so bad I can't stand straight. I had hernia surgery in the same spot when I was 6 could this be another hernia or something else?
Groin pain can sometimes happen due to medical emergencies like appendicitis, testicular torsion, ovarian torsion or a strangulated hernia (a hernia that's lost its blood supply). Seek emergency care if you have groin pain along with any of these symptoms: Nausea or vomiting.

I've been struggling with premature ejaculation for the last 2 years and it's really affecting my life. I tend to discharge early and it's becoming quite frustrating. Could you help me understand what's going on and maybe suggest some medication or treatments that could help with this issue?
Premature ejaculation (PE) is a common condition, and it's important to address both physical and psychological factors. I recommend speaking with a healthcare provider to rule out underlying causes, as treatments may include behavioral therapy, lifestyle changes, or medications like selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) or topical anesthetics to help delay ejaculation. Open communication with your partner can also be beneficial in managing this issue.

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?
Masturbation does not typically cause urethral stricture. However, excessive or vigorous masturbation can lead to irritation of the genital area. 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.
