Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Consuming a well-balanced diet with adequate fluids is important for post-operative healing and overall health. Refraining from sexual activity until impotency is ruled out is not necessary and measuring urine quantity for 3 months is not specific to testicular cancer surgery. Masturbating regularly to drain the prostate gland is not applicable to clients who have had surgery for testicular cancer.
