I'm having some trouble with my lower back. While taking a bath, I bent down to soap my legs, and suddenly my lower back started hurting. The pain is now spreading to my legs, and I can't really move around much. It's tough for me to stand or sit properly, and bending down or stretching backward is almost impossible. This started happening around 11:15 am, and it's been 2 hours now. Any advice on what I should do?

Itching After Masturbation: Possible Causes and Solutions_
The itching sensation you're experiencing after masturbation could be related to several factors. Before we discuss medication, let's explore possible causes:
- Allergic reactions: You might be allergic to your own semen or lubricants used during masturbation.
- Skin conditions: Existing skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis, or dermatitis can be triggered by masturbation.
- Hormonal changes: Fluctuations in hormone levels, particularly testosterone, can lead to itching sensations.
- Nerve stimulation: Masturbation can stimulate nerves, causing itching or tingling sensations.
Medication and Treatment Options
To alleviate the itching, consider the following:
- Antihistamines: Diphenhydramine (Benadryl) or loratadine (Claritin) can help relieve itching and reduce allergic reactions.
- Topical creams: Over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream or calamine lotion can soothe itchy skin.
- Moisturizers: Keeping your skin hydrated with gentle moisturizers can help reduce itching.
Lifestyle Changes and Precautions
- Practice good hygiene: Wash your hands and genital area before and after masturbation.
- Avoid harsh soaps: Use gentle, fragrance-free cleansers to minimize skin irritation.
- Reduce frequency: Consider reducing the frequency of masturbation to see if the itching subsides.
