Another question... once healed, will the pump find a actual permanent location or is it constantly "floating" around down there?

My understanding -- and this is the case with mine -- is that the pump is "secured" somehow inside the scrotum so it can move with the scrotum and testicles but it is not "constantly 'floating' around down there."

Ok.. my swelling is finally starting to subdue so I'm feeling the pump a lot more and it moves around quite a bit.. when my scrotum doesn't hang I tend to feel the pump pushed back by by anus or at least it feels like that

Dr. Brock told me that it is somewhat secured to keep it from entering my abdomen but it is free to swivel all around in the scrotum which is why I can't find the release valve it's probably facing rearward.

As of today my swelling is completely gone and my boys are hanging again..with this 3rd guy in the mix now(the pump), I think for some reason the swelling was pushing my pump back, but now it's all loose down there and I can work it... I won't be able to start pumping until day 19 as my dr is on vacation.. I hope this doesn't cause any problems as most start their pumping on day 14... I'm anxious but have to wait...

Many don't start cycling for a month. You should be OK.

My pump is always in the same place at the bottom of my ball sack. Using RTEs with my AMS CX keeps the pump low and easy to pump and deflate.
