Are Strenuous Activities Advisable After A Surgery For Testicular Torsion?

Hi, I recenty got surgery for a testicular torsion 2 weeks ago, my doctor says I should be fine for strenuous activities but I never asked him about roller coasters. I am going to a theme park tommorow with some people I know and I was wondering if I should be worried.

Hi,

Though, the strenuous activities can be safely resumed after 2 weeks of surgery for testicular torsion. But to be on safer side, there is always a word of caution, that the strenuous activities should be resumed gradually & the level of activity may be achieved to pre-operation level within 4-6 weeks. Therefore, do not be on roller coasters at this stage, as the sudden violent jerks may be very harmful.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
