I've been dealing with chronic snoring for a while now and even had nasopharyngeal surgery, but it hasn't helped at all. What else can I try to get some relief? It's really affecting my sleep and I'm worried about why the surgery didn't work

I'm 19 and I've been masturbating every day, sometimes more than once. I've noticed that I've had a nosebleed a couple of times after doing it, and both times it was cold outside. Do you think there's any link between my frequent masturbation and these nosebleeds?

Your nosebleeds are likely more related to the cold, dry weather than to masturbation itself. However, if you notice a consistent pattern where masturbation seems to coincide with the nosebleeds, consider adjusting your environment (like using a humidifier) and monitoring your overall habits to ensure you're not causing irritation. If the nosebleeds continue or worsen, it might be a good idea to consult a healthcare provider to rule out any underlying conditions and get personalized advice.
