Cycling after vascetomey

heathrow86

I had my vascectomey yesterday, so the question is how long should I stay off the bike for? The dr says a couple of weeks which seems a long time, I wonder if anyone here has been through the same?

Don't be such a sissy. I jogged home 10 miles after mine. Just kidding. I walked with bowed legs for at least a couple of weeks. Other people I have talked to said they
didn't really have any pain . I guess if it doesn't hurt have at it.

Just got back on the bike, mind you my op was back in 1981 :shock:

I rode my bike home from the hospital.
And then to work every day after that.

As long as it doesn't hurt - what's wrong with riding?

Well, he was ... once

I've not bothered with the unkind cut - old age has achieved the same effect more or less painlessly.

Hi i rode home from the hospital after my op, 6Km and had no problem.It was a friday and i did some cycling in the weekend with the kids as usual and resumed work on the monday 16Km commute each way on the bike. Had no problem at all, but do know quite a few friends who have had problems.At the end of the day if you feel no pain or discomfort then ride your bike as usual,why not. Greetings Ademort
