Pump issues

Hello I am. Ew to the boards and have went through all the pages and have not seen this discussion yet. I received my AMS 700 CX on October 4, 2017. Healing good according to the Urologist at Loyola. My issue is the pump rides high up in my sack and even she suggested I pull down on it a few times every day. I know I am now just 30 days post implant and I activate the implant twice a day. I pull down as best as I can on the pump but it does not seem to be helping. Has anyone else gone through this?
Other then that it seems to work great, when I pump it up in the evening I can get 12 pumps play with it and get a few more and keep going and it gets me to my same girth before surgery and just about a 1/4 less in length. Just hurts once I deflate it but I don’t mind since I know it will help make it heal correctly.

Any suggestions Or experances with a pump that is way high up in the sack?

I'm a couple weeks behind you. My pump also seems high to me. When I try to pull it down, it hurts like hell. I get a pain that runs from the top of my right testicle to the top of my scrotum. I'm hoping this is something that will resolve itself with time. I'm not due back to see my Dr. for almost three weeks.

Please let me know if the pump pulling pain resolves or improves. It's very annoying. I even have to be careful sitting down so as not to mess with it or it hurts.
