After my surgery the one question I was left wondering about is the reason my penis and scrotum are dark purple. Also, how long will this last?

Re: Black and Blue and Penile Implant
Hi Shopman. Ive had 3 different penile implants in the last year because of infection. And it takes time to heal, everybody is different. The first implant took me 4 months to heal the second implant took about 6 months and im still healing from the 3rd one right now. I feel like another month will be alot better. So hang in there buddy.

Charlie,
The "black & blue" will go away after several weeks ... this is also known as the "Eggplant Effect".

Eggplant??? Where did that come from. The color now after 6 days is a kind of reddish.

Re: Black and Blue and Penile Implant
Think of the discoloration as a bruise. You're shaft has been cored out to make room for the tubes... which were then pushed and pulled into place. Your penis got into a fight with the doctor and the doctor won.
Like any other bruise, it will fade away in a few weeks.

2 TURP surgeries caused Peyronie's. 1st implant lost to infection, 2nd one is about 5 years old. But "floppy head" due to all the scar tissue, couldn't get tips all the way up.

Thanks. If I were just a tad more patient I would find out that you were right. Right now I am 10 days out and the bruising is almost gone. There is one small spot on the end of my dick that is still a light shade of black or blue. So, it's all looking good.

Shopman:
Here is a link to my Journey. Starting on page 7 you can see day by day of my healing period. The bruising and swelling went away pretty fast with ice packs.
