Circumcision in adulthood generally does not lead to significant, long-term negative changes in erectile function or sensitivity. Studies have shown that most men report no noticeable difference in these areas after circumcision, and some even report increased sensitivity and research from the Journal of Sexual Medicine.

I've been struggling for quite a while now. I did prone masturbation for about 10 years, and I've noticed some uncomfortable changes. My penis now seems damaged. It's bent to the left, the base feels unusually smooth, it's quite small, and my erections only last a few seconds at most. I stopped the prone masturbation two years ago, hoping things would get better, but it feels like the problem is just getting worse. I'm really worried and wondering what can be done to improve my situation. Could you please offer some guidance?

I'm experiencing some pain in the area below my waist, especially when I wear a tight belt. The pain isn't constantit's more of a dull ache that comes and goes and seems to affect the whole front area. I'm a bit worried and curious about what might be causing this. Could this be something serious, or is it just from the belt being too tight?
