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 concerned about whether masturbation can lead to urethral stricture or any other issues. I've been masturbating and I'm wondering if there are any negative effects I should be aware of. Can you shed some light on this?
Masturbation does not typically cause urethral stricture. However, excessive or vigorous masturbation can lead to irritation of the genital area. It is important to practice good hygiene and use lubrication to prevent any potential irritation. If you experience any pain or discomfort during or after masturbation, it is advisable to consult a healthcare provider. There are generally no serious long-term effects of masturbation. In fact, it can have some health benefits, such as stress relief and improved sleep. It is a normal and healthy sexual activity.

I'm dealing with a kidney stone that's 11mm on the left side, and my doctors suggested going for Laser Surgery RIRS. I'm just wondering if lithotripsy is a possible option for my situation instead?
Lithotripsy can be a suitable option for treating kidney stones, including stones of 11mm size. Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL) is a non-invasive procedure that uses shock waves to break down the kidney stones into smaller pieces that can be passed out in the urine. However, the effectiveness of lithotripsy depends on the composition and location of the stone. It is best to consult with your doctor to determine the most appropriate treatment option for your specific case.
