Posted by John Dugan on Friday, September 7, 2018, In : Men's Health 

Constipation is not something that people like to talk about, let alone experience, but it is unfortunately a fact of life for many people. Surprisingly, this digestive condition can potentially have an impact on some men’s penis health, although certainly not all men who have constipation will suffer negative effects on their penis function. Nevertheless, because it does happen to some men, it’s good for guys to know about this constipation connection.

Avoiding a Sore Penis from a Male Chastity Cage

Posted by John Dugan on Saturday, May 26, 2018, In : Men's Health 

In general, most men like to avoid anything which can produce a sore penis. One of the reasons a guy pays attention to good penis care is so his penis will not be sore when given the opportunity to go into action. But some men do enjoy certain sexual roles which, while they provide them with pleasure, might also result in a sore penis. One such situation can occur when a man enjoys wearing a male chastity cage (or similarly male chastity device) around his penis.

This presents a bit of a c...

Avoiding a Sore Penis from Electrostimulation

Posted by John Dugan on Tuesday, November 14, 2017, In : Health 

There’s no end of fun a man can have with his penis, whether that fun is delivered by the man himself or by a partner. But many men have indulged in greatly pleasurable penis games only to awaken the next day to a relentlessly sore penis. This can be bad for overall penis health, as well as to continued sexual pleasure, so avoiding a sore penis is only common sense. And this applies even to relatively new areas of sexual exploration, such as electrostimulation - which definitely carries su...

Posted by John Dugan on Saturday, October 21, 2017, In : Men's Health 

In the world of penis problems, one looms large in the fears of men: testicular cancer. Horror stories abound about men who wound up with testicular cancer, including some high-profile individuals: Lance Armstrong is the first to come to mind for most, as well as figure skater Scott Hamilton and comedian Tom Green. The good news is that proper penis care that includes monthly checks of the testicles can go a long way toward spotting changes early, and thus getting a man in for treatment if a...

Got Indigestion? That Could Become a Penis Problem

Posted by John Dugan on Wednesday, September 27, 2017, In : Men's Health 

Just when a man feels like he’s doing everything right with good penis care, another potential penis problem rears its ugly head and makes him feel as though he’s back at square one. Sometimes that problem is one that seems to make no sense, such as indigestion. Sure, indigestion is something a guy might get from time to time, but he probably doesn’t equate that feeling of burning in his chest with any penis problem.

Though indigestion doesn’t have a direct correlation with penis p...

Can Penis Bumps Signal an STI?

Posted by John Dugan on Monday, June 19, 2017, In : Men's Health 

Often when a man talks about safeguarding his penis health, he’s specifically talking about making sure that he doesn’t come down with an STI (sexually transmitted infection). Certainly, an STI can be bad news for a man and any of his partners. It can severely limit his sexual activities and if not caught and treated in time can (depending upon the specific STI) have serious long-term consequences. Thus, a man may be on the lookout for any abnormalities that could signal the presence of ...

Posted by John Dugan on Saturday, April 22, 2017, In : Health 

Whether young or old, a little occasional penis pain is a fact of life for most men. It may be related to a sports injury or a urinary tract infection or some other reason, but even guys who are obsessive about their penis health may experience the odd penis pain now and then.

Going Beyond Penis Problems: Studying the Testicles

Posted by John Dugan on Friday, December 2, 2016, In : Men's Health 

When a man faces penis problems - anything from penis redness and irritation to itching or having trouble getting it up - he is usually rather quick to go to the doctor, as he should be. But when it comes to issues with the testicles, well…the situation is a bit different. When it comes to regular penis care, men tend to overlook the testicles and focus only on the penis itself.

However, regular attention for the testicles is absolutely necessary to avoid frightening medical issues, espe...

Can Dry Penis Skin Mean an STI?

Posted by John Dugan on Friday, November 11, 2016, In : Men's Health 

Even men who take extra pains when it comes to proper penis care may find that they occasionally get dry penis skin. There can be numerous reasons for this unwelcome occurrence, and usually the cause is fairly harmless. Sometimes, however, dry penis skin can be a sign of a deeper problem - such as the presence of a sexually-transmitted infection, or STI for short.

Not always an STI

As mentioned, there can be numerous other reasons for dry penis skin other than an STI. So what are some o...

Masturbation Statistics: What’s the Frequency, Dude?

Posted by John Dugan on Saturday, October 15, 2016, In : Men's Health 

Considering that it’s something basically all men are alleged to do, there are surprisingly few current statistics about masturbation. There’s no doubt that it’s a popular hobby, but it would be valuable to have a large-scale, thorough study which focuses on masturbation in the way it deserves to be addressed. Men (and presumably women) are going to masturbate no matter what the actual statistics are, if for no other reason than it’s fun (and also happens to contribute to good penis ...

Manual Stimulation in the Workplace: Why So Many Men Do It

Posted by John Dugan on Saturday, August 6, 2016, In : Men's Health 

Not surprisingly, there aren’t statistics kept on manual stimulation in the workplace, but anecdotal evidence suggests that this is an activity which has been on the rise in recent years. Behind closed office doors and in men’s room stalls, more guys are more frequently enjoying some pleasurable "me" time to make the 9-to-5 routine more enjoyable. Since manual stimulation can have a positive impact on manhood health, this is a welcome trend - but the reasons for men taking matters into t...

Penis Pain: Use Electrical Stimulation With Care

Posted by John Dugan on Wednesday, July 27, 2016, In : Men's Health 

Men interested in exploring new sexual avenues sometimes choose options that may cause as much penis pain as pleasure. Electrical self-stimulation is one such option; when used properly, it can be a boon, but improper use can result in discomfort, pain or other problems.

Sore Penis Predicament: The Over-Stimulation Situation

Posted by John Dugan on Tuesday, October 6, 2015, In : Men's Health 

The very concept of over-stimulation may seem ludicrous to some men, as there's practically nothing a guy enjoys more than the pleasurable sensations that run through the penis when it is being fondled, caressed or enfolded. Yet sad to say, over-stimulation does occur, and the end result of that situation can be a very sore penis. Now, the pleasure involved in reaching this sore penis predicament may make the pain well worth it. Nevertheless, proper penis care requires that a man knows what ...

Is Penis Odor a Sexual Stimulant for Women?

Posted by John Dugan on Sunday, September 27, 2015, In : Men's Health 

Human sexual response is a complex and complicated matter involving all of the body's senses - and some men believe therefore that penis odor can be a sexual stimulant that helps attract and/or excite a potential partner.

No man likes having a sore penis, but it does happen; much more problematic and serious is a penis that has contracted an STI (sexually transmitted infection, also often called sexually transmitted diseases).

Yes, it's a physical sensation that guys will focus on, but it's being created inside their heads; the fact is that men engage in more penis-centered mind games over the course of a day than in actual physical sexual activity.
