That is the std recommend for those like me who have severe scarring and have the LGX. He said something about my walls being thin and agreed to do 2 pumps, 20%. Fast forward 48 hours, bandages off and my first look at the war zone. I was curved and buckled severely to the left. Very painful at times peaked to 2. I would squeeze the upper 2 inches and stretch myself out. For an hour or 3 that solved the problem. Finally one time I got a very sharp 4 looked down and I was buckled to the left about half way down. Enough! Took a very hot shower gave myself about 2 and a half, half squeezes. So about 3 1/2 to 4 full squeezes total or 35 to 40%. Curving and buckling solved
Now the tip of my penis is cocked to the left. Cannot pee in a straight line or hit the toilet first try.
Is this permanent or not?
During surgery the docs are told to inflate twice before closing to insure you are straight on both sides. I have to assume that mine did and that this will go away, but you know what they say about that!
How about it guys, what's the real deal. I don't really care much very minor issue as long as it gets hard. I can always wipe up

On the second day my doc pumped me 10 full pumps. Told me to not touch it for 4 weeks. Was it because of my thick tunica? scaring?? pyronies bend to the right? I don't know and he retired right after my operation. He just said this would be the best for me. 90% pumped is not your friend. I am happy with the results now but the pain was sever. I used opioids through the 3 rd week and Tylenol every 6 hrs the last week. That healing process is not in the AMS procedure book but the doc had 30 yrs of teaching experience. I had infra pubic incision. No pain anywhere else except my rigid dick, especially where I could feel the scaring lumps. Not all docs do it the same. Also peeing. Every one uses a urinal or bottle to pee in for the first few weeks after surgery. NOBODY shoots straight. That is normal.

Nothing I can do if the surgeon has diseased me during surgery. I am in day 5 the nurse said 6 days no signs and out of the woods. Is that true? I never had any real swelling anyway. I have fished around for my ball using sterile gloves just to see. I have no pain in my scrotum at all. My boys are playing just fine with their new comer. When did you first notice the signs? Sounds like they fought like hell to beat it before they took out your implant.
I wash with alcohol actually soak every day. I soaked before I left for surgery. They did not have me bathe at the center. Glad I disinfected myself! This place seems very laid back as opposed to hospitals.
Could you give more details of signs? More than swelling did not go down? I mean very first signs. I don't want to wait until it's obvious.



So, first, your nurse was WRONG... I was one month post op... more than 6 days. I don't blame the doctor or the hospital for my sepsis... there is no way it could possibly have been their fault. So, it wasn't so much what I saw as what I didn't see... recovery. Swelling did not go down, pain changed to discomfort but then back to pain. Started getting low grade fever but then 6 hours later or the next day, no fever but then fever again, then hallucinations. By that time we knew something was wrong and did the 7 hours to get back to see the doctor. 15 minutes into the appointment I was admitted and on the surgery schedule. Don't let it freak you out. If it's gunna happen, it's gunna happen. Just keep the surgical area clean. If you are seeing the swelling going down, that's a good sign, pain decrease, another good thing. Epsom Salts baths just as soon as they will allow it. Polysporin ointment on the incision. Ice the swelling for 20 minutes at a time and just take it easy for a while. :)
