A member asked:
I'm suffering from minor epididymitis. is it okay to masturbate once in a day? does it affect healing time ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Epididymitis: It is preferable to continue treatment and forego any masturbation while treatment is being rendered. The risk of spreading the inflammation and scarring which can adversely affect fertility is increased.
