Is Masturbating After A Testicular Torsion Surgery Safe?

Hi i just had testicular torsion surgery yesterday and my doctor reccomended to avoid all physical activity for 2 weeks, but i was wondering how long i should wait before i can masturbate. I usually do it daily as i am a teenager and hormones and what not so i have a really bad urge to do so. If i were to do it gently and slowly after lets say 3 days will i be alright?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

According to my long surgical experience, you are not supposed to do gentle or violent (any type) of masturbation till a period of 3 weeks which is essential for post surgery recovery and avoiding any undue effects over the micro suturing done over the internal layers.

Feel free to post further doubts.

Thank you.
