Can excessive masturbation cause tickling sensation in penis?

Hello doctor,

For the past few months I have had a terrible tickling sensation in my penis caused by what I believe to be excessive masturbation, and I have been trying to cut back but with difficulty. I have spoken with a urologist and a neurologist elsewhere but they said it should go away on its own and that masturbation should not cause such a thing, but this answer does not satisfy me as it has yet to cease and has been tormenting me non-stop. I do believe vigorous masturbation to be the culprit hence I try to cut back but with the sensation still continuing. The feeling gets really bad especially when I sit down on a seat or lay on my side in bed. And car rides are the worst. I have studies that I attend to, I stay in those to help get my mind off of the tickling but with no success as the tickling bothers me that much. I have difficulty doing anything, and I am afraid to get a job having this feeling all the time. Exercise and drinking lots of water do not help at all. I tried Azos with no relief so I moved on from that. I had a random urine sample taken at the doctors office and it came out fine but I am not sure what they looked for when they tested it. I had my privates visibly examined and the doctor said everything was fine. Also, I had my hormone, testosterone levels checked and the doctor said they were fine as well. I have not taken any medicines or prescriptions for this condition, and currently I am not taking anything. I am so very tired of this feeling as it has been interfering with the things I love the most. Worst part of all this is that since I feel ticklish down there my mind gets filled with all kinds of sexual thoughts stimulating me to masturbate even more making the feeling even worse and more intense than before, there are times I cannot even sleep at night because the tickling or aroused feeling is so bad. Please tell me if there is something I can take for this and how to get it.

Thank you doctor,

This started many months ago, when exactly I do not recall. Sometimes in the beginning of the year but it got progressively worse starting three months back. The tickling is there with me most of the day except when I am walking, but as soon as I sit down on a chair or lay down it is present. But sometimes even when I am walking it is there. It will cease occasionally but only for short periods of time. As soon as I think its gone it comes back. The tickling occurs everywhere on my penis, or so it feels after feeling it myself. This would be the head, stem, and testicles and it tickles on the inside, not the outside. The feeling is a different kind of arousal feeling than when I get an erection. My penis does not tickle with a normal aroused erection. Sexual thoughts or fantasies come to my mind because of the fact it tickles so much down there, since sexual thoughts and feeling aroused usually go hand in hand. My mind does not think or focus on sexual thoughts usually, in other words I can be doing nothing to arouse myself and yet the tickle would be there anyway. I pass urine fine, no burning or pain and the color is normal. After masturbation, the feeling is relieved, but only for a short time and only to feel worse not long after. I feel like masturbation is the only way to relieve it, but the more I masturbate the worse the tickle becomes. Unfortunately, I had gotten into a bad habit of masturbating once every day, and for the past two months it has been worse, 2 to 4 times and even more depending. It depends. I am against the act myself and am really trying to quit, but this tickling makes it so difficult to do so. I am a virgin, I have had no sex with any woman. As for test reports I have none. I have taken no prescriptions or medications for this, and I am currently taking nothing. Regarding my test- Hormone levels from blood work, I was told they were fine but was not given any results back in paper. I did struggle badly with depression and anxiety, but I am coming out of that and putting it behind me. The tickle on the other hand continues. I hope this all helps. Unfortunately I have no test reports to show as I never went that far to investigate. Just a physical examination and a question answer time to be told in the end that it would go away on its own. The less I masturbate the better it gets, but even then there is still a mild tickle present.

Hi doctor,

Thank you for the answer. I do not have a psychiatrist that I met with, so other than that, would there be any other options for me to go to other than a psychiatrist?

Hi doctor,

Thank you for your help. I appreciate it.

Hello Doctor. I'm sorry I had one more question. So I have considered going to a psychiatrist as you recommended. In the meantime, I still was curious if there was anything I could take that would help relieve this sensation. I saw on this site a little while ago an answer to a physical complaint very similar to if not the same as mine. One of the things the doctor recommended was a multi vitamin/mineral drug called nurokind gold. So I wrote this down but never got around to looking into it until now. I have been curious about this for a little while now but I'm not sure if it is available where I live and if I could get any. I know that I would have to contact my doctor for their permission to use it, but is there any way I could get this stuff in a pharmacy if I told my doctor about this? Any way I could get any of this stuff?
