I noticed that the back side of the top of my penis got swollen after I masturbated last night. It's kind of worrying me. What could be going on, and what should I do about this?

Could be due to irritation or inflammation. I recommend using an over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream to reduce the swelling and discomfort. Apply a thin layer of hydrocortisone cream to the affected area twice a day for about a week. If the swelling does not improve or if you experience any pain, fever, or discharge, please consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.

View allI've had a hydrocele in my right testicle since 2008 and got surgery in 2015, but the size still isn't normal and it hurts when I touch it. Why hasn't it gone back to normal and what could be causing the pain even after surgery?
It's understandable to be concerned about the persistence of your hydrocele and the pain you're experiencing. While hydrocele surgery, or hydrocelectomy, is usually successful, there are instances where the hydrocele may not completely resolve or cause post-surgical pain

I'm feeling this constant pain that starts from my lower back and moves upwards, plus there's pain around my groin area. It's been pretty uncomfortable, and I'm worried because it also feels weird at the end of peeing. It kind of started with a burning sensation when passing urine and semen. I tried some temporary treatments with medicines like Silofast, Gabapin NT, and Liofen Ten, which eased the pain a bit, but once I stopped, the problems came back. I've done tests like USG, Urine Test, Uric Acid Test, Creatinine Test, and a Lipid Profile, and everything seems normal except my Uric Acid level, which is at 6.39. I'm just trying to figure out what's going on and what can I do to get the relief I'm looking for. Any ideas?
It seems you may be experiencing a combination of musculoskeletal pain and urinary issues. While your tests were mostly normal, the elevated uric acid might indicate a mild predisposition to gout or other joint issues. It's important to continue addressing pain with physical therapy, manage uric acid levels, and consider further evaluation of your urinary symptoms. A follow-up with a urologist or a pain specialist may help refine the diagnosis.

I'm worried about my husband. He masturbates about once a week, but the next day he feels completely wiped out. He's dealing with depression, body aches, and headaches, and just has no energy to do anything. Is this something to be concerned about, and how can we deal with it? Interestingly, he feels fine after intercourse. What could be causing this, and what can we do to sort it out?
It is not uncommon for some individuals to experience physical and emotional symptoms after masturbation, especially if it is accompanied by feelings of guilt or shame. To help alleviate these symptoms, your husband can try taking a pain reliever such as acetaminophen for body pains and headache. Additionally, he can consider taking a supplement like vitamin B complex to help with energy levels and mood. For a more permanent solution, it may be helpful for your husband to explore the underlying reasons for his feelings of exhaustion and depression. Engaging in regular exercise, maintaining a healthy diet, getting enough sleep, and managing stress can also contribute to overall well-being. If these symptoms persist or worsen, it is important for him to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and guidance.
