When you start to take warm baths it'll loosen up your scrotum and make it a lot easier to feel around down there.

I had my implant 30 March. My big problem now is I cant find the release valve. The doctor says it may have turned around. There is still some swelling but I don't have a back to my scrotum now... I don't know it the surgeons did something or just swollen but it kinda reminds me of a bee hive stuck to the side of a tree instead of a punching bag where you can get access to 360 degrees

I feel a lot better! Thank you. I'm off the hydrocodenes and taking 800mg ibuprofen once a day, I might take another dose during the evening as I found my sleep disrupted a few times last night from small pains...

And yes, I agree. This forum helps a lot with finding out if my symptoms are in line with others relieving my paranoia...

I can feel mine there as well but at times it's all over the place... if I lay on my back I can kind of feel the pump close to my gouch/anus... still can't grab it. I do feel it though, feels kind of strange to have some foreign object in there, hopefully I can get used to it.

I can feel the pump, just not the little release button. I think that part of my swelling and discomfort is from the implant being partially inflated.

Gentlemen, I had a revision and a lot of swelling and it worried me because I couldn't feel the release valve and could hardly tell where the pump was located. My doctor reassured me it was just a waiting game. I took regular warm/hot sitz baths and was "patient." Eventually, the swelling did go down and I can now feel everything down there normally. I hope it is just a matter of time for you too.
