Encapsulated pump
Posted: Fri Feb 12, 2021 11:42 pm
I am 11 days post op from my implant. My healing has been going well with everything except the pump in the scrotum. I noticed a few days ago after the swelling in the scrotum had completely subsided that the pump seemed to be encapsulated in a fluid filled sac within my scrotum. I messaged my doctor who said that it is normal and that the body is forming a capsule around the foreign body.
This morning it is quite sore and is about the size of an egg and very firm. There is no signs of an infection anywhere else, wound is clean, not even any bruising left. The capsule has not attached itself to the scrotum skin, but is sort of attached internally where the tubing enters.
I can't help but be worried. I guess I'm just looking for reassurance from others that experienced something like this and it turned out ok.
