Hi

I can’t seem to locate easily my deflate button. When I went to the Dr the other day he said he had trouble finding it as well.

Any tricks to fish easier?

I’m thinking I should of gotten the deflate button or maybe a different implant

Do you still have swelling in scrotum area?
I had problems also until some swelling went down until I could feel the bulb and deflate button really easily.

For the 1st six weeks, I too had that same issue. For me, I had to identify where the button was. Kept squeezing the wrong place. Once identified where it was, it was all good.

Try locating it under a hot shower. Much easier.

I know everyone is different, but do you recall how long it was before you could find it? I'm at 5 weeks and 2 days.....I was really swollen. However, I can now tell the bulb from my right nut and feel hardware, so I think it will happen soon. My doctor almost had it, but not quite. I see him in 6 days. Fingers crossed.

In 6 days a lot can change by way of swelling. If you didn’t get the keychain sample pump at least have him show you one at your visit. I had very little swelling and was able to find mine immediately after surgery. I was allowed by Dr to pump a few pumps and release at the 2 week mark and soon after increase to max inflation. You didn’t state which pump you had but All the buttons for deflation are at the top of the pump and once you find them it gets very easy to use them. Within a few months I could deflate mine thru my underwear or even pump and deflate thru my jeans. Time cures most all issues and your very young in the process. Hang in there. Keep us all up to date on your progress

I could finally feel the deflate button after 4 weeks but up until then, I could not find it or feel it because I was so swollen.

Went through the same way. Try to locate the lines going into the bulb tracing with your fingers. This helped me a lot. Took quite a few tries and in time you'll get it.
