I injured myself and need help

hi
about a year and a half ago I decided that I will try a new masturbation technique but ended up injuring myself. I got small cut in the opening of the urethra. so I went to the doctor and he said "forget about it".
the reason I'm posting here is the cut is still there, and I know that the injury needs at least 5-6 weeks of no masturbation to heal. but I've never managed to go that long without masturbation in the past 10 years. my most recent attempt lasted only 10 days and I was losing my mind by day 10.

so please help

Try another doctor? If that was really the response given by that doc then thats awful. Masturbation is completely natural and I agree that I would be a lunatic after 10 days so there has to be another way. Maybe medication or ointment that can speed the healing process up? Try a second doctor and go from there.

thanks for the reply. I visited my doctor again. he said that it's better to meet a specialist and forwarded my situation to a specialist that I'm gonna meet some time soon. he also said that it's possible that a surgery is needed, but the specialist will determine what's best.

Sanan22, I am so sorry that that happened to you. I hope that you don't need surgery, but if you do I hope that it all goes well. I think the longest I ever went without masturbating was 2 weeks and that was because of surgery I had to have, as well (on my prostate and bladder). It drove me crazy, as well, and was a huge relief when I started again (though I think I started too early, to be honest).

Would you mind telling us what technique you used? So that we could avoid the same problem.

It seems that masturbation, or at least orgasm, will happen eventually!

In my mid-thirties, I had prostate surgery for benign prostatic hypertrophy. The surgery basically reams out the urethra where it's enclosed by the prostate, and while it causes retrograde ejaculation, meaning that seminal fluid goes into the bladder, it has no effect on libido, assuming you can live without spurting semen.

My urologist told me to avoid masturbation and intercourse for two or three weeks after surgery, and I complied, not very happily. But one day when I was working in the garden, and getting hornier and hornier, I became highly aroused and without even touching or rubbing myself had a powerful orgasm. No damage was done, however, although the next time I peed a huge blood clot came out with my urine and semen. I soon recovered, and have had only minor prostate difficulty since then. One positive outcome is that I probably won't ever have prostate cancer, since that surgery prevents the conditions that lead to the disease. Or so I was told. Knock on wood(y)!

I had this terrible idea of using a pillow as a sex-toy, which caused a lot of strain.
after the injury I had even worse idea of adding safety to that practice then didn't understand until recently that the "safety" was not safe at all.
I didn't use a condom as "safety" so maybe that would've provided a better safety, but I've totally stopped using that technique (at least until I recover)

what was the effect of surgery? can you ejaculate?

Were you thrusting into it? I had heard that some men and boys were causing injuries by thrusting on their beds, but I didn't know if that was actually true.

I also had prostate surgery and I actually ejaculate much more than I did, before the surgery.

Sanan22 asked, "What was the effect of surgery? can you ejaculate?"

I can't ejaculate in the "traditional" sense (Grandpa, what was ejaculation like when you were young?).

However, my climaxes now feel feels identical, but no semen, or very little, is produced. Interestingly, the next time I peed my urine produces a lot of foam in the toilet. Perhaps semen is a form of detergent?

My surgery was almost 40 years ago, and in recent years I produce enough semen that Kleenex is sometimes needed. I should add that my wife and I no longer have intercourse. She was finding penetration quite uncomfortable, and I did as well — I think my penis was too big — — for her; she's a small person, and I was probably hitting her cervix. In any event, we enjoy mutual masturbation, and both of us have stronger orgasms than ever, not bad for a 71-year-old (me) and a 70-year-old (her).

I do miss traditional ejaculation. There was a time when I impressed even myself with the stregth of my ejaculations. Once, before we were married, my wife to be was giving me a hand job and I ejaculated so strongly that semen was dripping down the wall behind our bed. When we decided to "get pregnant," she had no trouble at all conceiving.

I've often "f__d" a pillow, without any problem other than getting semen on the pillow. You must be a vigorous thruster! You should try a woman instead. (I understand — oh boy do I understand! — that a woman is not always available, and pillows never say no!)

that is actually true. thrusting in objects is a risky thing. I learned that the hard way. there are many things that can cause damage.
1-rough surface
2-hard edges
3-too tight hole
to name a few.

even if the surface is smooth, some materials don't fold very well. so they form broken sharp edges when you fold them.

I see some progress already after I decided to stop doing that some days ago.
I saw that injuries like these take 2-3 weeks to heal, so I'm hoping it will heal before I get my appointment...haha

it is possible to get injured with a woman . rough thrusting+inadequate amount of lubricant=injury.

also the available people that I know about are not my type. drunken sex and getting to know others through sex seem to be the norm in my age. and I want none of that
