Hey

I had surgery 15 days ago, yesterday I had follow-up consultation and the stitches were removed.
At the right side of my scrotum there were also some stitches, that is where the drain was for 2 days.
Later after getting home I realized how is the wound from the drain looked like after the stitches were removed?
Is this normal? That it looks a but yellowish? There is pain there. The ultrasound yesterday showed that healing goes well, but I still have (dissolving) hematoma in the scrotum around the pump and in the shaft.

Do you think how this look like is a normal part of wound healing or should I notify my doctor?
(Yesterday he did not say if there was anything wrong with it.)

Send that pic to your doctor and tell them your symptoms.

Agreed, get into the doc, he will see you right away. Antibiotics brother. They saved me.
Good luck and keep us in the loop. This site is best for blowing off the steam, it’s going to be ok.

tell us what your doctor says. I had bleeding for like 10 days on my last revision but it eventually resolved. I kept taking my antibiotics and disinfecting the area with betadine and so on.
