Is a make-up day obligatory for one who has had a wet dream during the daytime in Ramadan and held his penis to expel any remaining semen?

The emission of semen due to a wet dream does not invalidate the fast. However, if it is emitted because of an action of the fasting person, such as holding his private parts, which increased his desire, then he must make up for that day due to the emission of semen through masturbation.
