No real science here: There is a "pop" internet claim based solely on anecdotes that masturbating while you are lying on your abdomen causes nerve damage and erectile dysfunction. You already know that essentially all males your age entertain themselves and this is basically a good thing if it's not an obsession. The "traumatic masturbation syndrome" isn't recognized by mainstream science. Stop worrying.
