A member asked:
I have a reddish bruise on the shaft of my penis after masturbation can this be an std infection?

Depends: If you have had sex with someone else, then any lesion on the genitalia would be concerning for possible std and would require a doctor to examine to evaluate. If you have just been masturbating only, then no, you can't conceivably give an std to yourself, and this is likely just over vigorous activity.
