Orgasm Danger After Tonsillectomy Posted: 08-29-05 17:52pm
I had a tonsillectomy recently and was
told post-op not to strain myself, not to
do any vigorous excercise--anything that
would significantly increase my blood
pressure, and/or pit strain on my neck so
that the scab on the tonsil bed would open
up prematurely. I had post-op bleeding a
week after surgery. The night it
happened, I was up late, had brushed my
teeth and tongue (after which I spit up a
tiny little bit of blood but thought
nothing of it), and I masturbated and had
laid down to go to sleep, when I started
to feel something dripping persistently
like a flowing pot-nasal drip. When I
spat it out, it was blood and after an
hour of continual blood-spitting, I went
into the er and had my left tonsil bed
re-cauterized. My question is whether or
not the masturbation/orgasm had anything
to do with the bleeding. Since the
incident I have abstained from having any
orgasms, and it has been a long week,
believe me. But its hard to imagine that
everyone would stop playing with
themselves for the full 3 week recovery
period...Apparently, only 10% or
tonsilectomies involve post-op bleeding,
and when it happens its usually about a
week after the procedure, like mine was.
Coincidence or orgasm-caused? Thanks!

Of course not. There is absolutely no
connection between your jerking off and a
botched tonsilectomy. Spilling your nut
wouldn't have caused any problems with
your surgery. It was coincidence.
Don't worry about it.

I recently met with a doctor who told me
the same thing: no activity that's going
to abnormally raise your blood pressure,
theres an issue with blood clots and
bleeding, or something. Although she only
told me 2 weeks.

There is no correlation. Just don't
strain yourself. When in doubt, don't do
it; give it time to heal.
