It sounds like the staph infection that I got post surgery. Get it swabbed and identified NOW. Then your Dr can issue you thr RIGHT antibiotic in the proper dosage for the proper length if time. I went on keflex for a week while waiting on the lab. Then to cipro for 10 days. A second round of cipro til my organs rebelled. While my bloodwork showed my infection was cleared up, I had a bit of wound seepage and the telltale yellow spots on the stitch line. We finally resorted to the topical burn silverdene and away the topical infection went. Be aware that the internal staph infection had to clear up first. I was sh-----g my bands through the whole time
But now, I have a great penis that I love....and a select few that love it too!. Fight fight fight!!! Don't give up til you've done everything you can to save it. I felt like you and somehow I got thru it successfully. I wish you all the luck. Robo...

I'm still hanging in there. My bandages have been clean the past few days, so thats a positive. I'm not getting my hopes up yet because the pump is still adhered to some scrotum skin. I read here that that will loosen with usage but because of my complications, I haven't been cleared to cycle. I spoke to my doctor about the pump and the skin it was stuck to weeks ago and it wasn't a concern. Spoke to him two days ago and he seems to think its now an issue. I will see him Monday or Tuesday. I will update then. Right now mentally I'm in the what have I done phase. But the clean bandages is a step in the right direction. Thanks for the support and well wishes. Its TRULY appreciated.

I pray things stay pointing up. I had a scare when I tore my stitches out about 10 days out. I am now almost 3 months out and learning how to use it.

I feel like I have no choice but to try again. I just got home from the hospital yesterday , but I don't think I will be happy with the malleable. Concealing it is gonna be an issue. The good thing about that is I lost 3 inches so there's less to conceal. Right now I gotta focus on getting rid of this infection so I will be ready for my 3 piece when the time comes.
