Re: 48 hours and counting

Call me crazy but I'm back at work today - probably just a half day for the next couple but. . . still haven't taken any pain pills other than Tylenol - scrotum and fat pad above still swollen and glans is still blistered and will surely peel but it's got its color again. Haven't even used any of th...

Re: 48 hours and counting

So apparently the surgery took about 6 hours to complete. Had to carve out scar tissue and also needed to use grafting material in order to get everything in. Staying an extra night in the hospital to make sure everything is ok and to keep me on IV antibiotics. Very little pain so far. Drain and cat...
