No pain??
I was implanted 48 hrs ago and I’m having no pain. Laying in bed or on the couch, there’s nothing. I can feel a twinge when I turn over but that’s it. Does the pain meds given at the time of surgery last this long? I’m a little worried that tomorrow, I’ll feel like I’ve been hit by a train. The Dr said yesterday that I was “pretty beat up”. Had to break up some scar tissue

Re: No pain??
Bad,
I'm a little ahead of you as I was implanted on the 15th. But I was the same as far as pain goes. The only pain that I have is usually self inflicted meaning I rolled over to fast or bumped something. I have done some cycling that brings on a stronger discomfort \pain. My sac blew up the size of a softball on day 6 or so it's not painful just heavy. the Jock strap helps with this though.

Re: No pain??
Hi
My experience was similar, very little pain, rather I would say only some discomfort.
I did not have analgesic medications, only the effect that anesthesia could have, which I believe would fade soon, because I had no general anesthesia, only local.
The following days, take some analgesic, because when I sit in a chair and walk, bothered and hurt the area of the scar and scrotum.
Everything was solved, lying in bed, it seemed as if I didn't have surgery.
Just a little patience
Regards

I gave myself 5 pumps and took a shower. Felt good to wash him up a little. Left the 5 pumps in while I showered and dressed. Then I deflated. Hope it stays this easy and gets better

Not everybody has pain. Quit worrying.
I was implanted 12-31-2019. No pain. Bruising yes. Sore definitely. Mild discomfort.
But never any real pain. Healed up quick. Still working great coming up on 3 years. Probably a less traumatic deal than the every 10 year colonoscopy.

Re: No pain??
Hey Badspartan,
You are doing great! My first attempts at cycling was at 4 weeks and my scrotum was so inflamed I could only do it a couple times and it felt like my scrotum was on fire. I left it alone for a week and when I went back to it the inflation/deflation when a lot easier. No way could I have done that at 48 hrs.
I think the aesthetics given during surgery last 2, maybe three days. My forth day was the worst, but I was able to control the pain with the Tylenol, 1,000 mg every 4 hours. Just stay ahead of it if the pain begins.
You are smart laying down as much as you are, I did the same and I believe it really kept the swelling down. If I sat up I could felt the fluid pressure increase at the surgery site, so I stayed down as much as I could.
Healing, unfortunately, is something you can’t rush.

Re: No pain??
I had only some minor discomfort during the first 2 days after surgery and didn’t use any of the prescription pain pills. Then on the 3rd day, similar to Maddawg, my sac blew up the size of a softball and the skin turned all sorts of colors. It was very firm and I couldn’t feel the pump or anything inside. Just a heavy sensation then on days 4-9 my scrotal skin felt like it was on fire and peeled twice like a sunburn. That was painful. Doc called it a scrotal hematoma and advised heat therapy to liquify the old blood and help the body rid the swelling. It took 2 weeks to get the size back to normal although the skin is still a bit tender.
Basically, I think I would have breezed through the surgery recovery if it hadn’t been for the hematoma. That caused me all sorts of grief and discomfort and delayed cycling.

Re: No pain??
Skill of the surgeon (and maybe just some good luck)..... I hurt like a bitch for months after my first implant. Much less pain with my subsequent implants. As I approach my 72nd birthday and able to "get it on" I'll say once again: Dr Perito is my hero!!! Good luck guys!

I think he is illustrating that revisions aren't automatically a thing to fear. Living without erections is what to fear.
