I'm curious about the recovery process after circumcision surgery. How long should I plan to rest, and when can I start activities like riding a bike or going back to the office?

After circumcision surgery, it is recommended to take at least 1-2 days of rest to allow for initial healing. It is advisable to avoid driving a bike for at least 1-2 weeks to prevent any discomfort or complications. Returning to office work can typically be done after 3-4 days, depending on individual healing and comfort levels. Remember to follow post-operative care instructions provided by your healthcare provider for optimal recovery.

I'm really worried about some issues I've been having since I quit masturbating a year ago. I started when I was 14 and I've heard it can cause issues both mentally and physically. But since I stopped, I've been dealing with things like fatigue, eye floaters, lower back pain, semen leakage, and watery semen. Is it normal to feel so confused and depressed about this, and how can I get relief from these symptoms?
