So I still have a normal size right testicle and my left one is a huge egg. I suspect that my left testicle along with that monster pump is in there. Doc had told me on day of surgery to keep pulling the pump down. Where is its final resting place? In between the 2 testicles? Lower? in the back? Lik...

So, this is day 18 post op for me. I have been cleared to start doing hot baths. Feels much better than icing. Doc told me that external swelling goes down before internal swelling goes down. And to expect to see swelling after physical activity. That definately happens. Just when I think I have tur...

Wow, hopeful, your last message was enlightening for me. Yesterday was 2 weeks post op for me. The icing routine is really getting old. Every once in awhile, I would think that I have recovered.

Thanks for the replies. I guess the one good thing to come from Covid is the ability to work from home. I did take the first week completely off and pretty much laid out flat. Today started my second week and back to the kitchen table with my laptop. I never realized how hard those chairs were. Than...

JiminFL, I enjoy reading yours and hopefuls journeys. I am currently on day 10 post op and experiencing a little buyers remorse. Still a little swollen, way too sensitive to even think about pulling pump down. This morning when I woke up, it seemed the swelling had reduced but after being up and wal...

Doc recommended double underwear to be able to put ice bags in between so it doesnt touch the skin.

Just got back from CVS with the aspercreme. But reading the directions, it says not to use on swollen skin. There goes that option.
