How To Deal With Sore Penis Head After Masturbation?
Ok so hopefully maybe possibly someone can help me with this and ease my worry. A week ago while masturbating I noticed a sore feeling under the head on the right side. this occured twice and I assumed it was from possibly being too rough. 3 days later while making love to my girlfriend I noticed a slight soreness during sex on what felt to be the left underside of the head. This concerned me and I told her about it. We didn't see any discoloration, bruising, marks or pimple heads anything of the such. Everything appeared normal aside the slight soreness/discomfort during intercourse. I'd hate looking up list of STD's to let my mind go wild with possibilities and thus far from my own knowledge I'm not finding anything that this could be linked to other than my own worrying, possibly over active attention or who knows. Any and all help would be apprecciated.

Hello,
To reduce soreness of penis head you can apply ointment Neosprin or soframycin. Do not fiddle with your penis for a couple of days. Let your penile muscle relax and soreness get reduced. Take care of your hygiene, wear soft cotton clothes. Do not rush back into sexual activities or rough masturbation. You can get STD tests done to stay on the safer side. If positive you will be treated with antibiotics / antivirals.
When you resume back to sex make sure that the vagina is well lubricated. Use vaginal lubricants and penetrate only when the vaginal muscles are wet and relaxed so that your don't hurt your penis head. Avoid rough sex, do not use sex toys.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
