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.

Yes, there are non-surgical options for managing phimosis.

I'm really worried about some nerve damage in my penis that's happened because of too much masturbation in the past. Is there a way to heal it naturally through exercises and diet without using medicine? What steps should I take, and what should I focus on for recovery?

While it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan, you can try incorporating foods rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals into your diet to support nerve health. Foods like fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins can be beneficial. Additionally, regular exercise, such as pelvic floor exercises (Kegels), yoga, and cardiovascular workouts, can help improve blood flow and nerve function in the pelvic area. It is also important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, including getting enough sleep, managing stress, and avoiding alcohol and tobacco.
