Hydrocele Repair Surgery
Posted: 05-29-07 23:34pm

I have a question I forgot to ask my Doctor after my Hydrocele repair surgery on the 24th. I had no idea the wound would look like this! It's like an alligator's mouth!
But two things... is the sac around the testicles going to at some point retract a little, right now it looks very "baggy" and I hope it isn't going to stay that way! Is that somethign that happens or am i looking at a cosmetic procedure one day?
Second, I have read different accounts on a return to sexual function, I now I'm supposed to wait several weeks for sex with my fiance, but the pressure is kind of, umm.. building? How long before it's safe to release it, I keep wondering if by not "clearing the pipes" that I'm doing more harm than good, but I'm afraid that even if I gently do I'm going to cause some kind of internal rupture! I'm 4 days post and off the percocet now, the bruising is subdued and mostly at the base of the sac where some darkness seems to be "pooling", but how long before I can relieve my own pent up "frustration"?
