Is It Safe To Masturbate After Suffering A Moderate Concussion?

My girlfriend went to the hospital yesterday after slipping and hitting her head on a concrete wall. She was dazed for several minutes and had trouble walking an hour later. After a CT scan, she was diagnosed with a moderate concussion. Today she s home and very bored, unable to watch anything, text, do homework, etc. Is it okay for her to, well, masturbate a little?

Hello!
I understand your concern.
The troubles your girlfriend has are due to the head trauma and concussion. It is a normal for her to be in this mood. She needs rest for at least a week.
I don't think masturbation will bring her any good or make her feel better. It may also cause a little physical stress . I am talking about the body autonomic response to this situation.
She will feel better in a couple of weeks. By the end of the month everything will come back to normality.
Hope to have been helpful!
Thank you for using HCM!
Best wishes, Dr Abaz
