Hello
Thanks for query
Getting morning erection is not the rule . If you are getting good erection on audio or visual stimulation or sexual thoughts during day time it should be considered to be normal
Do not worry about not getting morning election. It is more of a psychological in nature than pathological .

Hello
Thanks for follow up .I would like to answer your queries point to point as detailed below
1)Masturbation does not have any negative effect on size of the either penis or Testis . To confirm whether size of your penis or Testis is normal or otherwise you need to consult qualified Urologist or sexologist and get Ultrasound Scanning of scrotum done .
2)Size of the penis in flaccid state has no significance at all .It is the hardness of penis on erection that is important for sexual satisfaction of both the partners .The length of penis of 5-6 inches on erection is normal for average XXXXXXX population .As such female vagina on arousal can accommodate hard erected penis of 4 inches without pain and have enjoyable sex .
3 ) To confirm about whether your Testicles are small or normal you have to consult qualified Urologist for clinical examination in person and getting Ultrasound Scanning of scrotum done .
4) During masturbation there is increase blood flow to testicles and the congestion of the testicles cause transient pain in left testicle as on left side the Testicular vein drains in left renal vein on left does and give rise to pain in left side of back .This can be confirmed on color Doppler Scrotal Scan and ultrasound scan of abdomen .
