You may be experiencing inflammation or irritation from excessive masturbation. I recommend taking a break from any sexual activity to allow your body to heal. You can also try using an over-the-counter anti-inflammatory cream like ibuprofen gel applied to the affected area to reduce swelling and discomfort. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to prevent any further irritation. If the swelling persists or worsens, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.

I'm a 33-year-old married woman with a kid and have been dealing with recurrent UTIs once or twice a year. There's a small hole in my vagina since birth that lets feces pass, which my urologist says is an RVF. I never had UTIs before marriage, but now they keep coming back. Which medical department should I consult for RVF? Is surgery the only option, and what's the success rate since I've heard it can come back even after surgery?
