Hello XXXXXXX Welcome to healthcaremagic.
I am Dr.Senduran General physician,answering your query.
Masturbation is a normal behavior,doesn't affect the health if its in your control.
Malabsorption of nutrients in the intestine could be a possibility--However this presents usually with gastrointestinal upset like fatty diarrhea.Tests like stool analysis,small intestine biopsy may be considered later..
There are no specific ways to increase fatty tissue in face alone.Gaining overall weight would be possible.I would like to suggest few suggestions to improve your weight which are as follows
1)Balanced diet comprising carbohydrates, protein and fat in the ratio of 2:2:1 respectively
2)Try to eat little extra quantity after fulfilling your appetite(Don't over eat as it may lead to improper digestion)
3)Avoid drinking water during food intake.Try just Sips of water if you require.
4)Minimeals or snacks in the form of boiled cereal sprouts in between regular meals can be encouraged
5)Try consuming lemon juice near mealtime,especially before high protein containing food.This can help in better absorption of nutrients like iron,protein..
6)Optimal physical activity according to your diet..I.e if proper diet is less,workload is more---weight gain doesn't occur rather weight loss occurs.
7)Sleep well atleast 8 hours a day.
8)Avoid stress,anxiety with any activity of your interest.meditation, relaxation exercises also would be helpful.
Stick to the above said suggestions with patience and hope for the best.
Hope I have answered your query.If any further questions, don't hesitate.
Take care.
Wish you good health.

Brief Answer:
Needs evaluation to rule out IBS
Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX
Thanks for your query with the updated information.
Gone through the history carefully.
As you have been suffering with GI upset,improper bowel habits over a long duration,i would advise you to get evaluated by a doctor preferably gastroenterologist to rule out any functional causes of bowel dysfunction(like IBS-Irritable bowel syndrome) or any other anatomical causes of such dysfunction like sub acute bowel obstruction,any masses in the intestinal tract etc.
Some basic investigations like X-ray abdomen erect,stool analysis may be needed and also additional investigations may be required which depends on the advice of the treating doctor.
But in my opinion,most likely to be a functional bowel disorder like IBS..
Improper diet,eating habits,stress etc play a major role in causation of the symptoms of functional bowel dysfunction like IBS.
For example) If you drink a cold gas containing beverage,you may get these symptoms.This is because the intestine is unable to absorb the gases effectively and thus can get accumulated in the bowel which causes the abdominal discomfort,bloating etc.
In mean time follow the below suggestions to prevent such episodes and also better intestinal absorption of nutrients.
1)Encourage high fiber rich diet(like Fruits,vegetables)
2)Limit or try to avoid gas producing food items(like gas containing beverages,certain vegetables like cabbage,beans etc)
3)Avoid drinking coffee.
4)Avoid deep fried,spicy and greasy(high fat) foods.
5)Drink plenty of clear liquids(Plain water,tender coconut water etc)
6)Avoid using over the counter medications like laxatives without the advice of a doctor.
7) and all the suggestions mentioned in the previous query.
Masturbation could be just a coincidence and it shouldn't be the reason for not increasing weight and your gastrointestinal problems.
Visit a gastroenterologist as i said,for confirmation of diagnosis and further care.
Hope my answer would be helpful to you.
If any further concerns,reply back..
Take care and all the best..
