Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome to Healthcare magic.
I am Dr Ramadevi Wani. I will be answering your concerns.
You can have masturbation with external rubbing. There is no problem with it.
You should not insert anything inside the vagina, as it can cause infection/ delay healing.

I hope this is helpful.
Best wishes,
Dr Rama
