i am finding that when i masturbate (not on all occasions) i get an ache in my stomach. It can be quite painful. Like i said, it doesnt happen on all occasions however i have had a persistant cough for a few weeks now and i am unsure if that is the underlying issue. any ideas?
Hello, MASTURBATION is normal, natural and never unhealthy. Masturbation may not lead to persistent cough or soreness of throat. But Excess masturbation can kill your sexual stamina.  Excess masturbation can also cause anxiety disorder, depression and thereby erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, etc. You can be sure; there are no side effects to masturbation if you are able to restrict it to thrice a week.  Jogging and physical exercise are always good to keep you fit and stop worrying about sex and allied thinking.  The present cough may be investigated if it is persistent and for that please consult a doctor in person. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
