I'm worried because my penis hasn't been erecting when I wake up for the past couple of days, even though it usually does. Could it be due to the hot weather in Chennai? I'm also feeling mentally stressed. What should I do?

Smoking and Oral Cancer Risk_ 1. _Increased risk_: Smoking is a significant risk factor for oral cancer, regardless of the duration or frequency of smoking. 2. _Throat infection and smoking_: Smoking during a throat infection may increase the risk of oral cancer due to the compromised immune system and inflammation. _Why Smoking During a Throat Infection Might Increase Oral Cancer Risk_ 1. _Weakened immune system_: A throat infection can weaken the immune system, making it more challenging for the body to fight off cancer-causing agents. 2. _Increased inflammation_: Smoking during a throat infection can lead to increased inflammation, which can damage the DNA in oral cells and increase the risk of cancer. 3. _Higher concentration of carcinogens_: When you smoke during a throat infection, the carcinogens in tobacco smoke may become more concentrated in the oral cavity, increasing the risk of oral cancer. _Reduce Your Risk_ 1. _Quit smoking_: The best way to reduce your risk of oral cancer is to quit smoking altogether. 2. _Practice good oral hygiene_: Regularly brush and floss your teeth, and visit your dentist for regular check-ups. 3. _Get regular health check-ups_: Regular health check-ups can help detect any potential health issues early on.

I'm a bit concerned because every time I masturbate, I get this sweet ache in my testes afterwards. I do it pretty often and I'm wondering if that's something I need to be worried about. Is there a specific diet or anything I can do to improve my health and boost my immunity? I'm also quite skinny, so I'm curious if over-masturbation could cause any issues for me down the line, and what kind of problems those might be.
