Day 10 post implant

Hi All. I thought I'd share my experience with getting a penile implant. I had ED for 7 years and it began affecting my love life. I finally made decision to get implant on Feb8,2018. I was pleasantly surprised at how little swelling and pain I had. Worst discomfort was from reservoir placement, pump placement, and the damn cather. It was amazingly painful to urinate for 4 days after removal. I was always a grower so I was surprised that I'm a shower with an AMS LGX 15 +3 rte. My only concern now is at day 10, I still get oozing from incision site and little more discomfort. Has anyone had oozing at 10 days? Should I be concerned?
TIA

You have to use a photo editing program to reduce it

So sorry to hear this, I know exactly what you are going through but after everything heals you will most likely be able to be re-implanted. Keep your mind on that while you wait, it's what will keep you sane.

Just an update. Hospital resident didn't feel comfortable removing implant. My surgeon is on holidays for another 10 days. I've been put on IV antibiotics and oral antibiotics. Discharge has lessened and little pain. However the pump seems very uncomfortable. Is this normsl. Sitting is slightly painful. Anyone have a suggestion for a photo editor. I'd like to post some pictures
Thanks
