Hey /fit/ness gurus, I have a serious problem. I can't masturbate. Whenever I do I get serious neck pain that extends to the base of my skull.

I've tried different positions with different amounts of support for my neck. It still kills me though.

If I could afford a doctor's visit I would, but right now I'm broke... so I'm hoping someone here can help me out.

It just started recently. So any dieas?

>> serious neck pain that extends to the base of my skull.

With problems like that, you don't want to consult /fit/. You really do want to talk to someone with an M.D. or a specialist. Consider a chiropractor.

Yes, I heard that you're broke. Get health insurance and go see one. Don't have money for health insurance? Get a job. Already have a job? Get a better job. Have a good job? Then why are you broke? Still a student? Get COBRA. Financial health is necessary for mental health which is necessary for physical health.

you'd be suprised, depending on where you live, how easy it is to get insurance from the state.
I'm working part-time and I'm getting better insurance from the state than I would if I worked full-time and got insurance from my company. I live in Massachusetts. Fuck yeah, Commonwealth NHP. Usually zero co-pays. Zero premiums. I don't pay a fucking cent.

I have health insurance, but the copayment is $35 (which I can't afford). I only get the pain when I'm masturbating which is what is confusing me.

I'm working on getting a better job, but that would still take a while to take advantage of (at least two weeks).

Bump. I'm hoping to get some more answers before I go to sleep and decide I HAVE to make an appointment.

Holy fuck this used to happen to me a few years ago, or something like it. Whenever I'd jack it, I'd get this sharp, fever-like pain in the back of my neck and head. Shit fucking HURT. It only lasted for a month though, maybe due to stress.

Well, I do have an extraordinary amount of stress right now compared to my usual levels. My breathing has been extremely shallow as of late too and I'm worried about that, but I'm working on controlling it.

I just stopped masturbating for a while and it went away. Try waiting a few weeks and try not to get stressed out. Pretty much the only thing I can tell you.

I used to get extreme neck pain during pull-ups and sex few months ago. You should cut exercising for a while, just take a long run ( 10 miles ) two times a week and a hot shower after that, it really helped for me. It relaxes your muscles.

Thats really weird. I remember when I was younger it was really hard to wank because I would get a seriously bad headache. It only lasted a month or two though. And I managed to crack a few off anyway. :)

I've gotten two or three off, but it's still pretty painful. The pain usually lasts around 20 to 30 minutes, but today's lasted about two or three hours.

well, not to get off subject, but i was giving myself a hows-your-father this morning in the shower, and now it seems like i still have half a boner.
i checked it out a few minutes ago and it seems that the end of my penis below the head is all swelled up like its turned into a giant blister. any one you /f/it guys have this happen before? this is the first time this has ever happened to me, and its wearing pretty thin on my nerves.
any help would be appreciated.

You'd get a two month headache every time you wanked?! That is some seriously nasty PMS.

Morning time bump. I'm gonna make an appointment today, I didn't expect to get my paycheck for another week so I'm good.

relevant to my interests. I had this same thing too. I don't think it's just a guy thing since I had it for a couple of months and I'm a female.

I've had this too. I couldn't do anything strenuous _at all_. Couldn't do pull-ups, push-ups, couldn't wank. I was pretty stressed just because of the intense pain. It took a few weeks to get over that.
I'd also like to know more about this "pain". More specifically whether it's caused by mere stress, fatigue, sleep deprivation or something really serious (which I doubt, though).

Well, I've made a doctor appointment. Let's hope I get to the bottom of this for all of us.

Try tensing your neck muscles and holding them and see if you still get the pain. If that's the case, maybe you are a little stressed out. Plus you can make up another story and you don't have to tell your doctor "GEE, Doc, when I'm STROKING MY DICK I get this awful pain in me neck!" Then he'd say "WELL maybe I can STROKE YOUR DICK for you!" And then you would be in a mess.

I'm not ashamed or embarrassed about masturbating. When it comes to well being, I don't lie. There may be some obscure connection :O.

I have trouble believing or understanding this.

OP has a regular job with great health insurance and his copay is only $35... but even with a steady income he can afford rent, food, utilities, etc... but he can't come up with $35 to see the doctor?

I can afford what I have just barely.

But read>>194826, I didn't think I was getting my next paycheck until later (I'm so used to direct deposit bullshit). So I do have some money now.

But being a college student with lots of rising debt, I usually don't have money.
