I'm a bit concerned because an ant bit me on the skin of my penis head. There's no itching or anything like that, but it seems to have swelled a lot. Not sure what to do, can you help?

Prominent hila on an X-ray can indicate:

  1. Lymphadenopathy (enlarged lymph nodes)
  2. Pulmonary hypertension
  3. Cardiac enlargement
  4. Infection (e.g., tuberculosis)
  5. Tumor or cancer

It's not necessarily a structural fault

I'm a bit worried about my habit of frequent masturbation, especially since I'm in the 15 to 22 age range. I've read some stuff on Google saying that doing it often when you're young can lead to early prostate cancer. Is there any truth to this, or is it just a myth? I usually masturbate twice a day and it's got me concerned about my future. Could you provide some guidance on this?

I've been having this issue where I was masturbating and it got a bit rough, and now I think I might've pulled a vein or something. Its been a month and whenever I get an erection or need to pee, I feel a bit of pain. It feels like it's getting worse since I havent really stopped having sex or masturbating since it started. Can you recommend any ointment or something that might help relax my veins and speed up recovery?

No need to worry take some rest.give some time for it to heal.do not attempt to do such activity for a while,if its bothering you more,visit Urologist for appropriate management.
