I'm a 20-year-old guy and I've been in the habit of masturbating about three to five times a week. It used to be fine, but last year I started getting this weird needle and pin sensation and numbness in my hands. I stopped for about 10-12 days and the sensations eased up in about a week. But the moment I started again, the sensations came back the very first day. Can you help me understand what's going on with my sexual health? Are there any home remedies you'd suggest?

Your symptoms of needle-like sensations, numbness, and rapid relapse after resuming masturbation suggest a possible condition known as "neurogenic shock" or "over-stimulation neuropathy," which may be related to excessive masturbation, pelvic floor muscle tension, or peripheral nerve compression; consider home remedies like taking regular breaks from masturbation, practicing relaxation techniques (e.g., deep breathing, meditation), engaging in physical exercise, and applying warm compresses to the genital area to relieve tension; however, consult a urologist, or a neurologist for personalized guidance and to rule out underlying medical conditions.

I'm noticing that my right leg is thinner than my left one, and there's some pain there too. I'm wondering what might be causing this discrepancy. Is it something I should be worried about, or is it pretty normal? If it does seem like a problem, what should I do about it?

-It could be caused by a variety of factors, including muscle imbalances, nerve issues, or circulation problems. If the pain persists or worsens, it's best to consult a doctor to rule out any underlying conditions.

I'm having this issue where clear fluid keeps leaking from my nose whenever I bend down. This has been happening for about a year now, and I can count about 56 drops each time. My ENT thinks it could be a CSF leak and suggested doing some fluid biochemistry, but I'm having trouble collecting enough fluid for the test. Do you think this suspicion makes sense? And how can I get this confirmed? Are there any risks I should be worried about? I haven't had a persistent cold or anything like that, so I'm a bit lost on what I should do next.

Yes it could be CSF Rinorrhea needs proper evaluation, if it is so needs immediate treatment.
