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?

I'm really worried because I've noticed the hole in my penis seems to be getting larger, and I think it might be because Ive been masturbating a lot. Is there anything I can do to get it back to its original size?

It sounds like you may be experiencing a condition known as urethral meatal stenosis, where the opening of the urethra becomes enlarged. I recommend you to consult a doctor for proper evaluation and treatment. In some cases, a topical steroid cream may be prescribed to help reduce the size of the opening. Additionally, if the enlargement is causing any discomfort or issues with urination, a surgical procedure called meatoplasty may be recommended to repair the opening of the urethra.
