Pump stitched to scrotum?!?

The location of the pump is extremely tight and sore as well. Is it likely that the pump is stitched to the scrotum? If yes, what the reason for that? Will it be permanent? Hopefully not, otherwise I'll ask the doc to remove everything. If not stitched, what about the tightness, where is it coming from?

Never, it can't be an infection, it's like that from day one when I spent my time in hospital. One often reads about pump stitched to the scrotum - but I don't know the background nor what happened in my case. My doc is away...

I'm surprised that nobdy seems to know about 'stitching the pump to the scrotum'.

I doubt it is stitched but may be stuck or adhered to the tissue around it as this per others here happens on occasion. Your doc or some doc covering for him/her should be able to speak with you about this either directly or through the nurse and tell you what to do. Sounds uncomfortable but fixable. Hope your implant surgeon (or again someone covering for them) can reassure you today.

Pump is NOT stitched to scrotum, doc said this would be too dangerous. Hopefully it's becoming lose soon.
