I'm wondering if having a habit of daily masturbation is good or bad for me. How do I control or stop it if it's not a healthy practice? Are there any harms associated with it?

Daily masturbation can be a normal and healthy part of human sexuality, but excessive or compulsive masturbation can lead to negative effects such as fatigue, decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, guilt, shame, and neglect of responsibilities; to control or stop, try setting boundaries, practicing self-control, engaging in alternative activities, and seeking professional help if needed.

I've been feeling this burning sensation inside the skin of my penis after masturbating, and it's kind of worrying me. Plus, after a while, there's this white substance that appears when I move the skin, and honestly, it's pretty uncomfortable and making it hard for me to masturbate. What could this be, and should I be concerned about it?

it might be some fungal infection,keep that area clean. Avoid moisture in that area

I'm a bit concerned about something. I'm 23 and recently, I've noticed that the head of my penis has turned a blackish color, and there are some horizontal wrinkles on it. I've been masturbating daily for the past three years, and sometimes I forget to clean up afterwards. Could you recommend a cream or any advice on what might be happening?

You may be experiencing a fungal infection or irritation on your penis head. I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer of the cream on the affected area twice a day for 1-2 weeks. Additionally, make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and wash it gently after masturbating to prevent further irritation. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I'm really worried because I've been dealing with testicle pain for almost two years now. I saw a local sex specialist who just gave me painkillers, but the pain hasn't gone away. It's really affecting my life since I can't have sex with my wife without feeling a lot of discomfort afterward. What could be causing this, and what should I do next?

it's normal
