I'm a 19-year-old guy and I've been masturbating for about six years, but lately, especially in the last year, I've been doing it more frequently. Now, I've noticed that my penis seems smaller than it used to be and I'm getting stressed about it. Is there a way to get my size back? Could too much masturbation affect my size? Would appreciate any advice or help.

Masturbation doesn't directly affect penis size, but frequent or aggressive masturbation can cause temporary swelling, bruising, or penile fatigue, creating an illusion of shrinkage; to alleviate concerns, consider reducing masturbation frequency, practicing gentle techniques, and focusing on overall physical and mental well-being, including exercise, healthy diet, and stress management.

I've been diagnosed with mild right-sided hydronephrosis and a 3.4x2.7 mm left kidney stone with 150 HU. There's also mild right-sided perinephric fat stranding and peripelvic fluid, plus delayed contrast excretion on the right side. My right ureter is dilated with a 400 HU, 53 mm stone at the vesicoureteric junction. Is this something that can be treated without surgery, or is surgery the only option? Really worried and need advice fast.
