Has anyone had a seroma around the pump?
I had a revision surgery back in September of this year, it hasn’t even remotely started to go away.

Re: Seroma
Thickskinned, sorry to hear you are dealing with that. I'll admit I didn't know what that was until I Google'd it. Has it impaired cycling or sex ? From what I read a common treatment is to use a needle to drain the fluid. What has your Dr said about the condition and potential treatment(s) ?

Re: Seroma
I have not been able to cycle or have sex!
The pump is encased in an egg shaped cocoon full of fluid! I’m unable to squeeze the bulb or find the release valve.
Dr. Says, “It may resolve itself, or it may be indefinite !” Doesn’t want to do anything yet. Wait and see I guess.
I’m going to be in touch with him this week to get it resolved.
Unfortunately, draining it can introduce bacteria into the capsule infecting the whole implant.
