From what I know it can irritate the skin and can lead to long term issues with the skin like dermatitis. It can also cause blood vessels to rupture under the skin, which is usually not a big issue and will heal. But it can cause some pain and leave a mark when healed and will only heal when it is given time to rest up, which can be hard if one is used to a lot of masturbation. If it isn't allowed to heal, it can cause more problems. I'm sure there can be more issues, but I don't know about those.

A lot of the risks of masturbation are myths or exaggerated a lot. Wanking once or twice a day is probably fine. And your body will let you know when you've overdone it.

And to add: Poor hygiene is a lot bigger risk than masturbation ever is. Keep your bottoms clean!

You see that actually happen with trafficked people, who are forced to sexual slavery.

Yes? What makes you think I'm not? I'm definitely not some kind of alien, you know wearing a human suit like some sort of second skin. Nah that would be crazy.
