Is There Any Connection Between Masturbation And Swelling In Face?

I have an important issue to discuss. I m not quite certain if there is a direct link between masturbation and the distortions (swelling) of the face/facial tissue - but i ve been experiencing a disturbing phenomenon for almost 6 years now. I have taken pictures to compare, assessed the results before and after over and over again for the past few years and even asked others for comparisons - the bottom line is, my face gets quite puffy (very noticeably to me at least), after I masturbate. The puffiness builds up - It does not get directly too puffy after one time - If I continue the masturbation (consecutively, every other day, or even every 2 days), by the third time, it reaches it s full puffyness (where it is swollen almost twice my normal face size) - and the most disturbing issue is that the swollen face lasts for about a week (if I restrain from masturbating), but can last upto almost a month even, if i continue masturbating (every day or every other day). I have tried stopping masturbating and controlling my resistance from wet dreams even - but even then, somehow, my normal face stays upto a week or so until the puffyness comes back (Although I can t say that i completely gave up masturbation for a long enough time to test this theory effectively). This issue has damaged my self esteem and affected my psychologically for a very long time - My swollen face looks out of proportion and very unattractive compared to my normal thinner face. It s not psychological because I have pictures to compare and quite a few people have noticed the differences. I urgently need info and help on this matter - Thank you very much.

Hello
Welcome here.
I dont think there is any connection between masturbation and puffiness of face. However masturbation can cause facial flushing and redness of face.
I would suggest you to visit a psychologist for dealing with self esteem issues.
Kidney, liver and thyroid function tests are what i would suggest you to go for just to get screened for any medical causes of your problem.
Hope this helps.
