I had inguinal hernia surgery on my right side last friday. I tried masturbating and everything was going fine up until the point of ejaculation. The pain shot up and was a very sharp stinging pain and made where the incision is hurt and hurt into my groin. is this caused just from not waiting long enough after surgery? My scrotum is also very bruised but starting to fade away now since it has been a week.
Hi, Thanks for writing in. If you had hernia repair surgery on right side last Friday then it is too early to start masturbation. The hernia repair involves cutting through layers of skin and tissues and this needs some time, about two weeks for initial recovery. You should give at least 15 days rest before masturbation and also be gentle and use lubricants to avoid stress at the surgery site. Also, please do not do rough masturbation or sex even after 15 days because the surgical wound will heal completely only after 12 weeks in most people. You can however do light work. After inguinal hernia surgery with mesh insertion, you should not lift heavy objects for 12 weeks and avoid heavy physical activity.
