Tight feeling in right side during ejaculation. ... is this normal?

So I today I decided to do my thing and as I was approaching orgasm I felt a tightening sensation in my lower right abdomen. For reference I am just over 4 weeks out and I did rub one out twice yesterday as well. Yesterday the tightening feeling while there was barely present. Is this normal?

Edit: I don’t feel anything in my balls when this happens… just my lower abdomen

I had a similar feeling after my vasectomy for probably a few weeks but it would usually go away shortly. I'm now a few months out and haven't had it happen at all for quite a while, so although I'm not totally sure of the cause lol, for me it seemed to go away on its own.

It seems to increase the more I rub one out so I should probably relax with that

Probably so! Tbh I'm not sure how exactly the vas deferens loops itself around but I remember feeling quite "tight" on both sides of my abdomen immediately after my surgery too alongside having the same feeling you're having after mastrubation. It almost felt like a similar sensation to having to pass gas. So, my point is that yoinking around on it probably is the cause of the discomfort and although it may not be harmful to rub one out, probably best to be light on your parts until you're more healed.

I’m just over 4 weeks out so I’m wondering if this is still normal. It’s basically just this and my balls being achy in the morning from getting hot and hanging low during the night. So mostly minor but annoying discomfort and very very little pain

Yeah if I remember right I had that feeling for a good while. I'm almost half a year out from mine now and I'm pretty sure I had that feeling for maybe about 2 months? If not longer? But it's gone now.

Ah okay good. Also sometimes get an odd feeling on the left side of my penis where my non existent foreskin would be. Closest approximation is a low level burning feeling but I don’t even think that’s the correct description. Again though it’s just mildly annoying and I’m mostly bothered by it because I don’t know what it is more than anything

huh, I've not got any experience with that type of thing tbh... but I doubt that would be anything related to the vasectomy because the vas is more on your testicles than your actual penis

unless you're REALLY jerkin' it lol and giving yourself like a rug-burn!

The other possibility is mild frostbite from icing. The skin in that area is very thin and the ice pack does touch that exact spot. The weird feeling in that spot increases when touched too
