I'm 16 and have been masturbating quite a bit, sometimes up to three times a day. I've noticed that the veins on my penis are becoming more pronounced and seem to be multiplying. Every day, a new vein seems to pop up, and a couple of them are really thick and very visible, even when I'm not aroused. Could you help me understand why this is happening?

I'm really struggling with something and need some advice. I've been addicted to masturbation for almost 15 years now, and although I do it less often these days, I'm dealing with some serious issues because of it. I have IBS, chronic fatigue, hair loss, fatty liver, and memory problems. It's tough for me to concentrate, and I often feel depressed with really low energy levels. Can you please help me figure out how to fix this situation?
