Brief Answer:
Effects are psychological

Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Welcome to HCM.
This is Dr. Swarnava Dattagupta answering your query.

I understand your concern.
Compulsive or excessive masturbation does not have any serious physiological side effects. It does not cause protruding cheekbones or liver problems as you have asked. The effects are mostly psychological like addiction, sexual fantasy, loss of concentration etc which can disturb your daily life.
Don't worry about your physical health. Try to control your urge to excessive masturbation. ie instead of trying to stop it all of a sudden, you can try to stop gradually over a period of time. That will be helpful I believe.

Hope this helps.
Consult me for any further queries.
Regards.
