what if i have a swollen sack or hematoma

Postby proctor » Sat Aug 22, 2020 8:56 am

hello,
I know there are are some precautions that need to be taken to reduce swelling or hematoma, but if I have a swollen sack or hematoma, would it be a serious condition or something that just gives you discomfort for a few more days than you planned?
any thoughts appreciated..

I had a hematoma on my first revision. I got scared and went to the ER. They told me to just apply ice packs and it would go away, and it did in about a weeks time. I do not recall if they gave me antibiotics or not.

I was not real swollen but my sac had a lot of fluid or sme kind of something in it for about 6 weeks. It was so bad I had a hard time telling where the deflate button on the titan pump was. Over time it gets absorbed. I was told to just keep pulling gently on pump and massage the skin around the pump to make sure it stayed free. One part of my scrotum stuck to pump and took me a couple months of massaging it to break it loose.
