Post-op implant inflation to mitigate "coffin effect"

[Donnie1954]

Day 1 after implant
We got home around noon as my Uro insists on a one night stay. The catheter and drain tube were removed prior to discharge.
He installed an AMS 700 MS series (18cmx12mm with 4.0cm and 1.5 extenders) (A good firm 8 inches) I am very happy. He deflated me this morning and told me to keep pulling down on the pump. He used an intra pubic incision and the pump is at the bottom of my scrotum. Pain is tolerable with ice and meds. Very little swelling some in scrotum. My follow up in one week and we will begin cycling. Overall, not too bad and no regrets.

Day 2 after surgery .
My scrotum is bruised and swollen. It's about the size of a navel orange. I walk John Wayne now. Pain is tolerable and I'm using a lot of ice. The Dr kept me pumped up until my discharge yesterday. Can I continue to deflate my penis? Or should I leave it alone
When I'm fully inflated I'll have a good 7 inches. I'll see my Dr on Wednesday October 12. He said he would probably start cycling then.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Day 3 after surgery ,
Pain not as bad,(still on meds) but still black and blue. Not as bad 'cowboy walk. I'm wearing my son's whitey tighties, low rise briefs ain't happening. Underwear provides good support for my swollen scrotum. Slept well. Using a lot of ice. Weather calm here in Davenport, Florida so far.
The journey continues.

Great to hear that you are doing well after the surgery. You are doing a lot better than i did. If the doc says you can take warm baths that did the trick for me. The balls are tremendous and had to hold them up in the early post surgery. Mine were like grapefruit ---black and blue and thought they would never return to former look. All does and you will be a happy camper!!!

Good to hear from a bionic bro.
Dr. Wants to start cycling me in a week.
Not too sore now. Pain controlled by medication.
It's good to know I'm not alone in this endeavor. Thanks

Day 5 after surgery,
Itching bad. Prickly balls until hair grows back. Using a lot of lotion all over. Still black and blue but swelling is down. My penis is still very sensitive. Trying not to touch it much LOL. Staying on prescribed meds and 'takin it easy'. See the Dr Wednesday. Still using ice.
