You can't get an STD from masturbating.  No way, no how.  Masturbating is also NOT bad for your health!  
Best wishes,

I agree with Emma.

There are no health risks with masturbating.

If you've never had sex, you can't have an std.

I don't know where the bumps are, but google pearly papules and fordyce spots.  Those are totally normal, and it might be what you have.

i have these pimple on my penis they are small before i used to masturbate  alot but i dont now.i used to had backpain and i was tired.so can anyone tell what are these white little pimple for should i g to the doctor plz help are they sing of std or sti plz help

[auntiejessi]

I'm not sure you understand.  You haven't had sex, so you don't have an std/sti.  Its just not possible.

By all means, get them checked by a doctor if they are bothering you, but it isn't an std.

There are other things they could be but its not an std.

thank you auntejessi but i am just worried i keep on think about std i know u dont get them by masturbating but i am keep on thinking about it what should i do plz help sorry to ask u again

[auntiejessi]

See your doctor.

You won't get an std by masturbating.  You only get them by having sex with someone else.

hi sorry to bother you again i am very sorry is it good to use soap or shampoo to masturbate i use soap to masturbate is it ok plz tell thank you

[frightened:(]

Based on what I've read, it may not be the best idea to masterbate with soap or shampoo becuase they could get into the end of your penis and cause irritaiton.  Irritaition is possible, STD IMPOSSIBLE from this.  

Religious folk and those just opposed to masterbation try to scare others away from it. From a health standpoint, masterbating is completely fine as long as it doens't interfere with your involvement from the outside world.  Even then, it's not an std issue, but phychological thing.

I hope this helps, saah.

[saah]

i dont know what to do

[saah]

i dont know what to do its ruing my whole life i keep on thinking about std i am worry plz tell me what to thank you so much

[frightened:(]

You need to let it go.  Honestly, you're driving yourself crazy with an issue which is not an issue.  You can't infect yourself with an std.  When you are masterbating, you are with yourself, therefore, no std possible.  First of all, understand that you are fine.  Then you need to find diversions- hobbies (other than masterbating!) like movies, reading, chat with friends, hang out with friends, hanging out with pets can be very helpful too.  Good luck, Saah.

Frightened gave you some great advice, especially about what to use or not to use during masturbation.

Remember that masturbation can not cause an std.

hi

[saah]

hi can anyone help me plz.my testicles are always read i do masturbating before i was worried that you can get std from masturbating but when i found out that the answer is no so i am happy now but can anyone tell me why is mr testicles always red is it sign of std or sti plz help me i am very worried thank you

[auntiejessi]

Are they always red or are they red following ejaculation?

If they are always red, it might be a sign of a fungal infection, like jock itch, and you should see your doctor.

AJ

[saah]

there is no itch its just red its not aways red sometime it is but it doesn/t itch

[auntiejessi]

You really need to see a doctor.  You might have a fungal infection, which has nothing to do with sex or masturbation.  I bet your dad has had one before.

AJ

[saah]

is fungal infection bad will that do anything to my privite spot plz can you tell me about fungal infetcion and  i am very sorry to ask u again thank you

[auntiejessi]

A fungal infection is something that just happens, and its sometimes called jock itch.

its not serious, it won't have any long term effects, etc.
