About 17 days Post-op. No pain, but some swelling.
I actually didn't use any ice packs or warm baths. My doctor instructed not to sit in a bathtub, as this may cause infection, but showers with warm water are fine. He also preferred heating than ice packs.
I would follow the doctor's advices, but I am just curious why the heating is preferred over the ice? Are there any side effects in future with the cold ice packs?

I am not past 7 weeks. The erection is now at 3pm, which was almost 4pm 2 weeks ago. I found out that I can pump more while I am standing rather than sitting or laying down.
I will post updates about my progress frequently.

I used Ice first then at week 2 started alternating ice and heating pad. Did wonders for me. Like you Dr said no bath till you sack is complete healed. Risk of infection at week 4 I hit the hot bath. Sure helped loosed the bulb up for me.

Sounds like your doing great! Keep us posted.

One thing I've learned. Every Doctor is different. In skill, demeanor, Time to Activate-3 days to 10 weeks-, time to hot bath-3 days to 4 weeks, time to sex - ? weeks to 10 weeks, cycling protocols all over the place.

My doc was 10 days to hot bath and 8 weeks to activate. 8 weeks to just "pull down" and move the 8-Ball around. I know...healing, learning where pump parts are. Doesn't seem to be a Best Practice. Training, Common sense and past experience. Biggest reason to hookup with a Doc that has done a lot of implants. About the best you can do.

Any update you can share? How do you like the CX? What's your length/girth before and after?

To be honest, I am not sure what exactly my size was before surgery. Maybe because I couldn't get a hard erection to measure it, but it wasn't more than 4.75". Now I measure about 5.25" (not bone-pressed).
I am very happy with the CX. It is giving me a straight, rigid dick and soft, unnoticeable flaccid. I feel it is the perfect choice for me!

What is the girth with your CX? Does it seem the same as before, or more/less?
