I'm 28 and have been masturbating for over a decade. The last couple of days, I noticed that my penis isn't getting erect and it seems smaller than usual. What should I do about this?

View allI've had a lump on my penis for a few years, and recently I've noticed two more smaller ones have appeared. I'm a bit worried about what this could mean. Any idea what might be going on?
This could be due to various reasons such as infections, cysts, or other underlying conditions. I recommend you to take Ibuprofen 400mg twice a day for pain relief and inflammation. Additionally, you can apply an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin on the lumps. However, it is important to have a physical examination by a healthcare provider to determine the exact cause and appropriate treatment.

I'm a bit worried about some results I got from an ultrasound. It mentioned something called hydronephrosis on the right side, but it says the corticomedullary differentiation is okay on both sides. It also notes that the cortical parenchymal thickness is normal. There's a small calculus, like 9 mm, in the lower part of my left kidney. I'm not really sure what all this means. Should I be concerned about the hydronephrosis or the stone? Could this lead to something serious?
That Hydronephrosis could be due to Renal calculus and 9mm stone is significant and needs surgery,visit Urologist for appropriate management and also consume more water

I've been wondering and I'm a bit worried because when I was around 16, I used to masturbate a lot and applied pressure on my penis against the bed. Now, my outer skin has kind of opened up, and the inner skin is exposed. I'm concerned if this could cause any issues in the future. Could you give me some advice on whether this might be a problem?
Sounds like you may have experienced some trauma to the skin of your penis. If the inner skin is now exposed to the environment, it is important to keep the area clean to prevent infection. You can apply an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin twice a day to the affected area. Additionally, you can take an over-the-counter pain reliever like Tylenol to help with any discomfort. If you notice any signs of infection such as increased redness, swelling, warmth, or pus-like discharge, please seek medical attention promptly. It's also important to avoid any further trauma to the area to allow it to heal properly.
