you can mate , just use some lubes like Vaseline and try not to touch the glans much , take it easy and slow , i did it in the third week

[ratm in reply to dick_is_responding]

what about sex?

[S2BC in reply to dick_is_responding]

I think petroleum jelly is too thick for masturbation. Why not to touch glans much? It won't stretch the wound line that much than wanking the shaft skin. The wound line will heal on top layer first, but deeper tissue takes more time.

Many folk have successfully masturbated after 4 weeks without any problems. You can try it, but be gentle and prepared to stop at once if it gets painful or there is any bleeding.

You can touch the glans if you wish, but avoid contact with the wound itself. You will no doubt find the glans very sensitive to touch and may not be able to stand it yet. You may, or may not, need to use some form of lube. If so, only use a water based one so that you can continue to use your regular one later with a condom (when any oil based one cannot be used as oils rot a condom).

Actual sex really should wait for full 8 weeks and then use a condom (even with a regular partner) to protect the vulnerable new skin.
