I was operated for varicocele about one month back. I could not control my sexual urges and masturbated after 10 days from the date of the surgery. Ever since I have been masturbating 2-3 times a week. Will varicocele reoccur since I am not able to control my urges?

Masturbation does not cause varicocele or its recurrence. Varicocele is a condition characterized by the enlargement of veins within the scrotum, which can lead to discomfort and fertility issues. It occurs due to the abnormality of the veins and their valves, not due to sexual activity. Having surgery for varicocele does not eliminate sexual urges or the desire to masturbate. It is important to note that masturbation is a normal and healthy sexual activity, and it does not have any direct impact on the development or recurrence of varicocele. However, it is advisable to follow your doctor's post-operative instructions and take care of your recovery. This typically includes avoiding strenuous physical activities, such as heavy lifting or intense exercise, for a specific period of time after surgery. It's important to allow your body to heal properly.
