I am day two into recovery and I have a question.

My penis is slightly pointing off to the left post surgery. Is this cause for alarm?

Take a chill. Sizes & angle discussions are for several months post op.

Agree - relax. Keep the compression (Jock Strap) on; keep your junk pointed up; and follow all the post op instructions to the letter of the law. You will be fine.

I have not received much in the way of post op notes. The doctor never mentioned a jock strap.

Turbo… I was implanted 2 weeks ago today. Dr inflated me maybe 20% after surgery and mummy wrapped it in a soft cast material for first three days and he wrapped it at a pretty sharp turn to the left so much that I called and asked he said he did it on purpose as when he inflated me prior to surgery it had a slight curve to right so was countered by placing it to the left. At three day he did an unexpected thing and totally deflated it and said I’ll see you in 4 weeks . It will point any way I put it and can move it any way I want. I went ahead and pumped several pumps and it straightened right out perfectly straight.

I called my doctor and he acted like it was no big deal and this is normal. I have lots of other questions and I am not getting a response from my Dr. so my trust level is low right now.

Did you have to learn how to pump? I have been trying to find my pump and I struggle to find the pump.

Turboplanet,

Give the search for the pump some time. You are only post op a couple days and there is swelling down there that would make it difficult. Once you are healed if you still can't find it try a hot bath to loosen the sack up to explore. The Dr gave a me a fast lesson and I had received a pump sample from Coloplast prior to the procedure which is now a key chain used regularly lol.

Be patient it takes time.

Silver Daddy,

I thought Dr Eid started cycling as early as day three. Did I understand this incorrectly?

Was Eid your surgeon? Don't mix recovery treatments from 1 doctor to a different one.

Turbo,
Normally curvature is addressed in degrees. Prior to my implant I had developed pyronines which resulted in a 25 to 30 degree curvature to the left. My surgeon, Dr. George Abdelsayed- Kaiser, did model with the placement of my 22cm Coloplast implant. About a week after placement, I notice I still had some curvature. I thought I would "get a head of the curve" on the curvature and started unauthorized cycling, when I went in for a 2 week check he encouraged me to discontinue that as it could lead to a hematoma. And I did so until he recommended to start cycling.
Most of the curvature is gone now at 1.5 years out. It is not a concern at all at this point. Good Luck and god speed.
