Healing typical for 2 weeks?

Hey guys,
I had my 2 week checkup, surgery was on 9 Feb 2021. Doctor said 4 more weeks before I can touch it or use it for everything but to pee. I was very disappointed, to say the least. In your experience, with me being so well healed up (at at least what I can see),Is this average?. I had 1 day of discomfort, and almost all bruising and swelling was gone in a week. First pic is what I am so proud of now, deflated. 99% bruising gone. Other pic is the scar line down my scrotum.
Please, help me out here guys.

Sounds and looks like your doing fantastic. Yea my Dr said no touch fir 6 weeks. I’m a very impatient man and started working the bulb a bit earlier. I had no pain with my surgery a year ago. Wife and I did a test run at 5 weeks. But that just me.

Congrats to the new you bionic brother.

Sounds right to me. I had the same instructions. I was allowed to gently pump it after two weeks. You're gonna love it buddy.

I know what your getting at,, it looks great from the outside,,, but,, Don't,,, I repeat don't rush things on the healing part,, there is internal healing that has to happen also,, internal sutures,, the corporal body has to develope its scar tissue along with scar tissue around everything in your body that is foreign to it,,, read my posts, you don't want to go thru it again right ?

I agree with the above opinions. Follow you doctor's directions.
I was supposed to get cleared for intercourse at 1 month, but at the appointment, doctor advised to come back in two weeks. I believe 6 weeks is the standard. Some patient could recover earlier, but those are exceptions.

rms0929,

I think you look fantastic overall. Your skin looks healthy and your result looks very natural.

I do want to ask about your pump placement. I have seen several pics of implanted men here on FT, but I can't remember one in which the pump was so clearly obvious.

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but in your first pic, I believe I can see your testicles directly below the penis and then the pump in your scrotum to the lower right. The pump seems very distended. I'm wondering if this is normal. How does it feel?

My right testicle is high and beside it on the left is the pump, the left testicle is lower and somewhat behind the pump. When it is colder, everything contracts up and it looks more like a tennis ball. I'm really not even aware of the pump except like when I am in the shower. There's been no pain in or around my scrotum, even right after surgery. I am sure that you have heard the expression "every swinging dick "? I have had to buy tighter underwear because before the surgery I was very much a grower and didn't have to think about, should I hang to the left or the right? Now flaccid I am more than double my presurgey size and unless I am aware of where it is now, I have to be careful sometimes that my pants don't tighten as I get out of the car and such.
