Hi.
Thanks for your specific query.
Since you are recovering from Epididymo-Orchitis, you can certainly go for masturbation.
One ideology of thought say that masturbation will help to removed the debris out of the system and help in recovery.
Please continue with proper medical treatment.
Take plenty of fluids orally.
Have scrotal support.
And regular review with your Urologist.
