Ok I can understand the problem. This needs physical examination. Either you take paid individual consultation or in person consultation.

Given the symptoms you’re describing—swelling, numbness, and tightness of the penis in a flaccid state—there’s a good chance that these issues are linked to repetitive trauma or overuse associated with frequent masturbation. When you mention that things improve when you stop masturbating, it suggests that the excessive stimulation could be causing repeated micro-tears, inflammation, or irritation to the delicate tissues of the penis. It’s important first to reduce the frequency of masturbation to give your body a chance to heal. Aim for a significant break if you can, or at least decrease the frequency significantly to see if there’s an improvement in symptoms. Rest is crucial here, just as it would be for any other repetitive stress injury. If you can, try limiting it to once or twice a week and observe how your symptoms respond over time. It’s beneficial to pay attention to your technique as well—avoid aggressive motions or positions that might be causing extra strain. While you’re reducing activity, applying a gentle moisturizer can help maintain skin hydration, though avoid anything that can cause irritation. If swelling doesn’t go down, or if numbness persists, it’s vital you consult with a healthcare provider to rule out any other underlying medical issues, like nerve compression, Peyronie’s disease, or other dermatological conditions. Your GP might recommend seeing a specialist, such as a urologist, for a more focused evaluation. Don’t delay seeking medical advice if symptoms do not improve, as chronic issues like these can lead to more significant complications if left unaddressed. Also, consider reaching out to a mental health professional if you feel you need support with managing addiction behaviors. Functions like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) can be particularly effective in helping reframe and manage compulsive behaviors.
