Q: i had friction burn on the head of my penis from aggressive masturbation it never hurt or itched but the skin in the area became red and smooth and is taking a long time to go back to its original color its been months..?

: It sounds like the aggressive masturbation is causing skin irritation. It would be best to avoid aggressive masturbation to allow the skin to heal naturally.
