Reroute Tubing

[Irish Lad 34]

Has anyone ever had surgery to reroute the tubing?

I had a penoscrtoal implant 1 week ago. There is visible palpable tubing at the base of the penis. It's most visible and palpable when I lye flat with the scrotum relaxed and hanging low. It's not visible and it's barely palpable when standing up if the scrotum is tightened up.

I think it has turned out this way as a result of the surgeon tying a knot in the tubing up near the base of my penis although I'm not sure. I have my follow up consultation with him tomorrow.

Has anyone ever been able to reroute their tubing via surgery or any such measures?

Sorry to hear you are going through that.

By the way i am curious where is your pump placed, on the front or back of the testicles?

and regarding tubing, usually you get a temporary stitch to hold the pump in place, which will eventually dissolve and the pump should be a little less "stiff" along with the rest of the tubing attached to it. Things soften a bit over the first couple months. So maybe you would not notice it later.

But i do think revisions are possible if you need them

Hi. I'm not sure if the pump is front or back. It's just in the middle. OK the stitched and scabs in the scrotum are still visible and annoying but I'm sure that aspect of it will improve in a few weeks. I'll be as patient as I can but I honestly think the tubing at the base of the penis is going to be a long-term nightmare for me. If it doesn't improve I'll see someone for a 2nd opinion to see if anything can be done to re-route that tubing. I'd be desperately hoping it can be fixed without a full revision.
