Hi,

Someone had similar situation like me?

My pump is attached to my testicle as long as i remember after my surgery. Recently, my incision was infected which was treated with 3 week of antibiotics. Incision looks closed now.

But now i can feel a small tissue or lump between the interface of my pump and testicle which has grown a bit, i am not sure why, may be with walking recently. The hospital checked ne for pus or infected around implant via ultrasound they did not find any evidence of infection and recently a blood test was dine at general practitioner it came back okay, with no infection or inflammation markers. The pain i feel now is in testicle it is a dull pain which i would rate 3/10. Do you guys have an idea what it could be? I am little bit stressed again. I am exactly now 5 weeks out.

Any of you had similar experiences? I can feel my left testicle or tissue around is swollen now.

I'm 3 weeks post surgery and facing the same issue with pump attached to my left testicle, causing pain and discomfort.
I'm seeing my surgeon tomorrow as I read somewhere here that other faced similar issue and had their testicle separated from the pump with Dr involvement!

same problem 24 days out..testicle attached to the pump if I touch it I feel discomfort, a burning sensation and I feel a liquid around the pump..I'm worried about the infection but the incision has closed perfectly..the doctor just said it's give it time soon and don't play with the pump.. when the inflammation is gone time will detach the pump from the testicle
