Brief Answer:
let me know your position while masturbation and other details

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing to us.

First of all let me clarify something about masturbation.

Masturbation is natural and normal thing.It is done by 95% of the males in the world,mostly before marriage as well as when wife is away, in menses or pregnant after marriage. It is not at all harmful. Frequency of masturbation done by an individual varies from once a day to once a week. It depends upon individual libido, wish and timing. It neither causes any weakness nor any problem in sexual activity.

There is no normal frequency of masturbation by which we can define over masturbation.In general one act of masturbation requires 100-150 calories. So it is not so much energy consuming. But when person does the same at cost of routine work and daily life we can say it over masturbation. When person does continuous masturbation it can cause fatigue. Masturbation dose not cause back problem directly. Position while masturbating can cause backache.

let me know some details

- Your age?

- Since when are you masturbating?

- Since when problem is there?

- Frequency of masturbation?

- Position and duration of masturbation?

- Is there any history of back problem , injury or surgery apart from masturbation?

I will be happy to help further after getting your answers.

Regards,
Dr.Chintan Solanki.

Brief Answer:
physical examination is needed

Detailed Answer:
Hi Young man,

Thanks for information.

Pain is there since 9 months while you do masturbation since 6 years.Pain relieved by pain killer for short duration. This history suggests that masturbation is not directly causing pain but during masturbation procedure some muscular stretching is there or masturbation is exaggerating some existing pathology/problem in local muscle/nerves/ligaments.

Masturbation when done for long hours per day can cause back pain but this is not the case in your history.

Proper physical examination by a doctor is needed. If required local x-ray can also be advised.

You did not mention how you masturbate (in which position). Changing of position or method may be useful to avoid such pain.

Please consult doctor preferably orthopedic for examination to rule out physical cause.

All the best.
