Hi, back when I was in college (30 years ago), I experimented while masturbating by putting a rubber band around my penis. I did this a number of times and most likely did some damage. I know, I know, very dumb but back then I was always trying new things. Here I am, 53 years old, and my penis completely shrinks up when it s cold, to the point that it is truly painful to urinate when I m outside in the elements for an extended period of time in the winter. I have to use a vacuum pump to restore the blood into my penis but obviously, this is not something easy to carry around. I ll use hand warmers inside my underpants too. Is there anything medically that could be done to reverse this damage. I m fearful that this could add to urinary tract infections and bladder problems as I age. I already have a start and stop issue when urinating. I would be grateful for any advice.
Degree understand your concerns went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. You must be aware that masturbation is no sin. Masturbation is natural and even animals do it. For a youngster of age group 13 to 17 masturbation every day is normal. After that also it is normal, but people get engaged in some other activities like games, education, career etc. which are more engaging and energy consuming. There are people who masturbate daily even at middle adulthood. The trouble is lack of knowledge and the anxiety arising out of it. Feeling guilty will trigger anxiety. Psychotherapy techniques should suit your requirement. If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this URL. http
