I've been getting this weird tingling and shooting pain in my penis, especially after a long erection, but sometimes even without one. Could this be connected to bloating somehow? It's really concerning me.

Bloating typically doesn't directly cause nerve pain in the penis, but pressure from abdominal bloating might irritate nearby nerves, potentially leading to discomfort. Shooting pain in the penis after prolonged erection or randomly could be due to nerve sensitivity, strain, or other underlying issues like pelvic floor tension. If it persists, consult a doctor.

I'm a bit concerned because my penis is 13.5 cm, and I'm wondering if that's considered small. Sometimes I feel like I need to masturbate to avoid the constant urge for an erection. Could this be a problem?

A penis size of 13.5 cm is within the normal range, and there's no cause for concern. Masturbation can be a natural outlet for sexual urges, but if you feel discomfort or pressure to engage in it, it's important to address any underlying concerns and maintain a balanced approach to your sexual health. If you ever feel unsure or anxious about your body, it might help to talk to a healthcare provider.

I'm really worried because I've been masturbating for about 5 years, and now my penis looks different, kind of out of shape. I'm not sure if this will affect my ability to have kids in the future once I get married. On top of that, my legs have gotten really thin, and I feel pain in all my joints. My testicles are also quite painful. Did I somehow damage my penis? Could you help me understand what's going on?

Masturbation itself does not typically cause permanent damage to the penis or reproductive health; however, your symptoms, such as penis shape concerns, joint pain, thin legs, and testicular pain, may be related to other factors, including over-masturbation, which can lead to temporary issues like fatigue, muscle strain, or inflammation; consider consulting a urologist
