Hey guys, bit of a weird one but I’m curious if anyone has experienced something similar.
I’m 27 and recently I went through a period where I was masturbating pretty frequently (like multiple times a day for a bit). Over the last week or so I’ve noticed a strange sensation that started during masturbation and sometimes lingers after.
It feels like a mild discomfort or “nerve-like” sensation that starts around the base of my penis (mostly right side) and kind of radiates down toward my right testicle / the area behind it. It’s not sharp pain, more like a weird sensitivity or awareness.
What’s confusing is It’s more noticeable during/after masturbation
It can still be faintly there even when I’m not doing anything. It seems to be one-sided (right side)
No obvious lump, swelling, or visible changes and
Urination is normal.
I also wonder if it could be related to overdoing it, pelvic floor tension, or even something like irritation from friction or posture. I did shave recently too, so I’m not sure if that could contribute at all(it doesn’t feel like it’s from shaving).
I’m planning to take a break for a week or so and see if it settles down, but I wanted to ask:
Has anyone here ever had something similar after a period of frequent masturbation or sex? Did it just go away with rest, or did you end up needing to get it checked?
