How soon after a regurgitation can I handle my snake?

Once again, because it will stress him out. Ball Pythons don't like to be handled, they like to hide. Simple as that.

So I should just never handle him in general?

If you want him to be at his calmest and 'happiest', yeah sort of. I keep handling of my BP to a minimum for this reason. Five or ten minutes is a long handling session for me.

But the main reason you're not doing it now is that you need to be absolutely 100% sure that the regurge wasn't caused by any hidden health problems and eliminating all other stress is the only way to do this.
