A member asked:
Can a person still masterbate while taking antibiotics for epidiymitis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Can yes, not smart: Difficult to avoid painful scrotal contact during masturbation. However, might be ok, if masturbation confined to glans penis ; distal shaft. Best advice is your epididymis a break for couple of weeks.
