4 weeks post op and won’t stop burning

Postby Arrowslinger » Thu Dec 29, 2022 2:24 pm

I’m four weeks post op and my penis is burning like it’s on fire from the inside, my pump has fixated to my scrotum and as formed a thick layer of something on top of it, making it nearly impossible to inflate or deflate!

Well, you might want to see your doctor asap. Do a blood/cpr test and see if there are any signs of infection.
You'll likely need to start oral antibiotics asap.

I'm 6 weeks post op from my revision, and from week 4, I started having this same burning sensation in my shaft, so I went back to the doctor and did the things I mentioned above, my CPR was at 48.7mg/L and 1 week later after oral antibiotics is at 6mg/L. Pain is still strong. I'm back at the hospital taking IV antibiotics.

Check my revision thread for more information. From what you describe, I would say your experience has been similar to mine but I'm a couple weeks ahead.

Go back to your doctor as soon as you can.

Good luck.

I seen my doctor last Thursday,He said he sees no sign of infection. He thinks it will go away when I start cycling.

That doesn't sound good, talk to your surgeon asap.
I had burning pain for months, figured it was a reaction to the antibiotic impregnated on the cylinders. I ended up using Aspercream, a small dab smeared on my shaft helped.

My doctor said the same thing as well, waved me off completely, and now I'm in the hospital. I started having fevers and untolerable pain after week 3-4. I don't blame my doctor, but they can be completely off. It all boils down to how you feel.

If pain is already at 7/10+, don't wait too much.

I think these docs are getting a little careless…you guys go ahead and defend them all you want, but it certainly seems like more and more problems recently
