I'm wondering about the effects of masturbation on health. Is it generally good or bad? Also, if someone has been masturbating frequently over a long period, could that be harmful to their health? Just trying to understand if I should be concerned.

There is no evidence to suggest that masturbation is harmful to your health. If someone is experiencing any negative physical or emotional effects from excessive masturbation, it is important to address the underlying issues. It is recommended to maintain a balance in all aspects of life, including sexual activities. If you are experiencing any concerns related to masturbation or your sexual health, it is best to consult with a healthcare provider for personalized advice and guidance.

I've been diagnosed with a hypotonic neurogenic bladder and have been dealing with slow urine flow, sometimes medium. Allopathy and surgery don't seem to offer a permanent cure.

While both Ayurveda and homeopathy offer alternative approaches, neither is considered a "permanent cure" for hypotonic neurogenic bladder. They focus on symptom management and improving overall well-being. A comprehensive approach, including medication, physical therapy, and potentially surgical interventions, may be necessary for a permanent solution

Last night I was having intercourse and somehow ended up doing it between his legs. I felt a burning sensation and when I woke up this morning, I noticed two burns on the head of my penis. Ive been using aloe vera gel for now but I'm a bit worried. What could this mean and what should I do next?

You may have experienced some irritation or friction burns during intercourse. To help with the healing process and reduce discomfort, you can continue using aloe vera gel. Additionally, you can also consider using an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment like Neosporin to prevent infection. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and avoid any further irritation until the burns have healed. If the burns worsen or do not improve, it would be best to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.

I've been experiencing some troubling symptoms after I masturbate. My penis starts hurting, and it feels like I need to pee, but nothing happens when I try. Lately, I've noticed my endurance during masturbation has gone down too. I end up feeling weak and sore all over the next day. A few days ago, I even felt a burning sensation under the skin of my penis. I'm really worried and not sure what's going on. Can you help?

These symptoms may indicate an underlying infection or inflammation. I recommend you take an over-the-counter pain reliever like acetaminophen to help with the pain and inflammation. Additionally, you should apply a topical antibiotic cream like Neosporin on the burned area of your penis to prevent infection. It is important to drink plenty of water to help with urination and flush out any potential infection. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.
