I'm planning to start a family, but I've been struggling with getting a proper erection lately. I've never had problems before, and my sex life used to be good. This has been happening for the past few months. I don't have any medical issues or take any medication, so I'm a bit worried and could really use some advice on what might be going on.

I've been having this issue where I was masturbating and it got a bit rough, and now I think I might've pulled a vein or something. Its been a month and whenever I get an erection or need to pee, I feel a bit of pain. It feels like it's getting worse since I havent really stopped having sex or masturbating since it started. Can you recommend any ointment or something that might help relax my veins and speed up recovery?

No need to worry take some rest.give some time for it to heal.do not attempt to do such activity for a while,if its bothering you more,visit Urologist for appropriate management.
