Is it okay to masturbate 22 days after shoulder humerus fracture surgery or should I wait longer to avoid any complications

You can masturbate after 3 weeks if there's no pain or strain—go slow and avoid pressure on the shoulder.

I injured my right wrist TFCC around two months back and the doctor recommended surgery. Can you explain the difference between open surgery and arthroscopy for TFCC repair? I'm a bit nervous about the options and recovery process

Arthroscopy is minimally invasive with quicker recovery; open surgery is used for more complex TFCC tears.

I've had this metal rod in my lower leg for about 5 years now. Everything's been okay until recently, when I started feeling a constant pain near the knee where the screw is fixed. I'm considering getting the rod removed, but I'm worried about whether my leg will end up weaker after the operation and how long the recovery will take. Any advice?

The recovery time can vary depending on individual factors, but typically it takes about 6-8 weeks for the bone to fully heal after the operation. To help with the pain and promote healing, your doctor may prescribe pain medication such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen. Additionally, to support bone health and strength during recovery, they may recommend calcium and vitamin D supplements. It is important to follow your doctor's post-operative instructions carefully to ensure a successful recovery.
