Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX,
Thanks for writing in to us.
I have read through your query in detail.
Please find my observations below.
1. Masturbation within limits is a safe and pleasurable sexual activity enjoyed by most people. It is said that masturbation is normal 2 to 3 times a week and not more than once a day. This basically releases sexual tension and is also lowers stress.
2. Masturbation becomes a problem when your mind is busy with thoughts of masturbation and sexual nature and you are unable to concentrate on your work and study. Please do not think of masturbation and sex when doing important work and studying.
3. Till you get married you can masturbate 2 to 3 times a week as per your choice till you get married. This is perfectly normal and acceptable male behavior. It will not affect your marriage and sex life if done within limits.
4. There is no need to worry if you take a well balanced diet with 2200 kcal intake. This will give you energy and stamina. You can also take a multivitamin pill daily. Avoid alcohol intake and smoking.
5. If you still feel disturbed by masturbation then do other activities like going out for a walk, reading books, listening to music, talking to friends, doing exercises and yoga to control your mind when your get sexual thoughts.
Hope this answers your question. Please feel free to correct any oversight in my interpretation of your problems and discuss them in detail as per your requirements.
Hope your query is answered.
Do write back if you have any doubts.

Hi XXXX,
Thanks for writing back with an update.
1. It is better to get a upper gastrointestinal endoscopy first to know if there is any gastritis and ulcer formation which is giving you the discomfort.
2. If the upper gastrointestinal endoscopy is normal and you are still having the problem then you can get a CT scan abdomen and pelvis done under the recommendation of a general surgeon after getting clinically examined.
3. Please concentrate on food habits and have meals on time. For bloating please take meals regularly and avoid spicy foods. Drink adequate amounts of water and fresh juices. Avoid mental stress and keep your mind relaxed.
