I've been masturbating for the past 6 years without actually removing my clothes, like on my underwear. Is there any chance this could lead to an infection?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Masturbating in this manner may increase the risk of developing a genital infection due to the warm and moist environment created by the underwear. It is important to maintain good hygiene practices to reduce the risk of infection. You can use antifungal creams like Clotrimazole 1% cream to prevent or treat any potential fungal infections.

My foreskin won't pull back over my penis should I be considering surgery or are there meds that can help with this? It's been really uncomfortable and I'm not sure what to do about it.
If your foreskin won't pull back over your penis and is causing discomfort, you might have phimosis, a condition where the foreskin is too tight to retract. Treatment options include topical steroid creams and, in some cases, surgery like circumcision or frenuloplasty

I'm really struggling with an addiction to masturbation over the last 10 years, sometimes doing it multiple times in a day. I've noticed my penis has become quite large and bent to one side, and my scrotum is bigger than usual too. This has made it hard for me to wear pants comfortably, and I'm feeling pretty depressed about it. Is there any way to reduce the size or reshape them to a more manageable size? Would love to hear your advice on how I can address this situation.
Excessive masturbation and friction may have caused penile curvature (Peyronies disease) or swelling. Enlarged scrotum could indicate other issues like hydrocele or varicocele. Consult a urologist for evaluation and tailored treatment options to address size concerns and any emotional distress.
