Is It Safe To Masturbate While On A Foley Catheter?

I have been wearing a Foley Catheter for about 8 weeks. I am 70 and when I used to masturbate only a small amount of discharge came out. Can I masturbate with this thing in. Lately when playing myself some precum seems to have leaked out of the catherher and caused me testicles to be wet. Is it OK to play with myself??

Hello,

I would not recommend masturbating with a catheter in place because you will be more prone to infection and this infection may go to your testicles causing testicular infection or orchitis.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Manuel C See IV, Urologist
