Testicle attached to pump

[artful todger]

My left testicle is attached to the bottom of the pump 12 days post opp. Has anyone else experienced this?

Apparently it is quite common. It happened to me. Do a search on FT and you should see a few posts. Some say the surgeon purposely anchors the pump to a testicle to immobilize it before closing up so it doesn't get in the way. I'd wait a few weeks and then start tugging the pump down. The sutures are dissolvable but it took a good couple months before my 3rd nut finally came loose. One morning I realized it had come loose. Hooray!

It can be quite common, it’s called fixation some get more then others, your body it trying to heal the best way it can, I had a lot of fixation and at a nearly a year in I still do have a little bit at the pump just between the block and the bulb. It does go away bud give it time.

Been to see prof ralph, i've got a hematoma around the pump. It will resolve itself in a week or so hopefully, but it's hard to start inflate/deflate until its resolved. I thought my pump was huge ;D. Everything else looks fine no infection.
