Groin pain after exercise

Hello. I wanted to ask a body-positioning and exercise-related question. While lying on my stomach during sleep or yoga poses like cobra pose, I feel some pressure in the groin/private area. There is usually no pain, but I wanted to understand whether this kind of mild pressure is considered normal and safe for males. Also sometimes penis starts leaking liquid due to pressure on it, is it normal also ?

Fibromyalgia and related issues

My mother is suffering from fibromyalgia and arthritis-related mobility issues. She is unable to walk properly without support and her legs have become very thin , At night she experiences severe leg pain, tightness/cramping, and discomfort, especially after physical activity or household work. Medicines prescribed by the rheumatologist are not giving significant relief. For temporary comfort, every night we press her legs using our own feet (pair se pair dabana/walking gently over the legs with feet) for long durations. However, she has become extremely sensitive to even slight changes in pressure or foot positioning. Even natural foot tilting on uneven surfaces while pressing seems to increase her pain suddenly. We want to know whether pressing legs using feet in this way can help temporarily or whether it may actually worsen fibromyalgia, muscle, nerve, or joint-related pain over time. She also tried physiotherapy twice earlier but it did not help at all , now she doesn't trust it
