Brief Answer:
It is ok to masturbate since the wound is healed.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I think it is ok to masturbate 8 days after having inguinal hernia surgery and after the wound is healing normally.
Taking count that you removed strings means that everything is ok with the wound.

I believe you will not have complications or anything to worry about.


Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
Thanks.
