Font panic, obviously, the most important thing is to consult your doctor now to see what he thinks.

If you are familiar with the feel of your pump, Dr. Eid says that you will notice less detail and it will have a different feel. Also is the pump adhering to your scrotum or testicle? All of these are possible signs of infection.

Hopefully, all will turn out well Jamie! Keep us posted.

I never had shooting pain with my infection. As Hawk man stated I did have a tethered pump. This could be a part of the healing process, but consult your doctor immediately. If it is an infection, the sooner it's caught, the better for you.
