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'm a 29-year-old guy dealing with phimosis and a really tight foreskin. Is there any way to treat this without having to go through surgery? I'd prefer non-surgical options if possible

Yes, there are non-surgical ways to treat phimosis, a condition where the foreskin is too tight to retract. Topical steroid creams and gentle stretching exercises can often be effective, especially in less severe cases.

I'm experiencing nightfall about 5 or 6 times a month, and when it happens, a white sticky liquid comes out, which I think might be sperm. But when I try to masturbate like most guys do, nothing comes out except urine. I also had sex with my girlfriend using a condom, but didn't feel like any sperm came out then either. Is something wrong with me, or should I be worried about not being able to ejaculate properly?

Possible Causes* 1. *Ear Infection*: Middle ear infection (otitis media) or outer ear infection (otitis externa) can cause ear pain, heaviness, and numbness. 2. *Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) Disorder*: TMJ connects the jawbone to the skull. Disorders in this joint can cause ear pain, headaches, and numbness. 3. *Migraine or Tension Headache*: Headaches can cause pain, heaviness, and numbness on one side of the head. 4. *Sinusitis*: Inflammation of the sinuses can cause pain, pressure, and numbness in the face, including the ear area. 5. *Dental Issues*: Toothaches, abscesses, or gum disease can radiate pain to the ear and head area. Self-Care* 1. *Apply Warm Compresses*: Warm compresses can help relieve ear pain and discomfort. 2. *Manage Stress*: Stress can exacerbate headaches and ear pain. Engage in stress-reducing activities like meditation, deep breathing, or yoga. 3. *Maintain Good Oral Hygiene*: Brush and floss regularly to prevent dental issues.
