How Can Masturbation Affect Health?

hi, i want to share my problem. Actually I am 26 years old but not married. I lived in relationship from 9 months but from 2 months my partner is not with me due to some family problem. In that time we do sex in regular basis but in this time she is not with me so I started masturbating and now I become like a mad for sex and due to this I do masturbating 2 times in a day. So I want to know that is this right option and what is the impact on my health from this habit. I am not happy from this so please help me..

Having 2 to 3 times a week is not an issue, more than that is also not an issue, but needs adequate nutrition and exercise which will be difficult to fulfil
