No: It will cause absolutely no harm. Don't worry at all. If you have been told that, it was a flat out lie.

No: No (unless all that masturbating is getting in the way of a person's ability to eat healthy meals, is preventing adequate sleep at night, or is not allowing other exercise that all growing teens should be having).
