Not particularly : Masturbation isn't likely to help healing. But if you have a very "vigorous" or intense habits that place excessive tension on the anorectal area, there is some small chance it could be harmful.

You're fine: It won't interfere with healing. I'm sorry you went through the trouble of an anal fistula.
