I'm 16 and have been masturbating quite a bit, sometimes up to three times a day. I've noticed that the veins on my penis are becoming more pronounced and seem to be multiplying. Every day, a new vein seems to pop up, and a couple of them are really thick and very visible, even when I'm not aroused. Could you help me understand why this is happening?

Can daflon 500 help with venous leakage? I'm really worried and would love some advice on whether it could improve my situation. What do you think?

Daflon 500, which contains a combination of diosmin and hesperidin, is commonly used to improve venous tone and reduce inflammation in conditions like varicose veins or venous insufficiency. While it may help improve circulation and alleviate symptoms, it is not a direct treatment for venous leakage. It's important to consult your doctor for a comprehensive evaluation and treatment plan tailored to your condition.

I've had a surgery and circumcision when I was 9, and there's always been this tiny bump near the stitch under the skin of my penis shaft. Lately, it's swollen, and sometimes there's this white fluid coming out. It's painful if I touch it. I'm kind of worried it might be an infection or something. I'm trying to avoid going to a hospital right now, so I thought I'd ask for advice online first. Any idea what's going on?

Even though you're trying to avoid going to a hospital, if the situation doesn't improve or worsens, it may be necessary to see a healthcare provider. In some cases, an incision and drainage might be needed if there's an abscess or infected cyst. Please monitor the area closely, and if symptoms worsen, do not hesitate to seek medical attention.
