Doctor i have some more queries. Please give your valuable advice
1. Doctor, To get the erection, he has to do masterbate. On erection, he feels that he is not getting firmness or hardness in the shaft of penis. Is it a normal thing?????
2. Will he be able to regain the firmness or hardness of the penis within 3 months before his marriage if he stops masterbation?
3. Due to masterbate his skin has become loose. Wrinkles have been appear on the foreskin of his penis. I think its due to masterbate. Will these wrinkles go away or disappear by itself with the time or Does he needs to take any treatment for these wrinkles?? Is there any treatment for these wrinkles??
