Seroma?

Postby Pine85 » Mon Mar 06, 2017 4:22 pm

Hey guys,

I'm almost at the six weeks out from my surgery. So far, everything is progressing nicely, but I do have one issue. The bottom third of my penis is very swollen (almost 9 inches in diameter) and Dr. Kramer believes I probably have a seroma. I may get a ultrasound in a couple weeks to confirm as Dr. Kramer suggested.
I was wondering if anybody here had a similar issue? If so, did it resolved on its own, or did someone have to aspirate the fluid out?

Thanks

I had swelling at the end of my foreskin at the underside after 2 implant surgeries. It looked like a bubble. About 3/4 the size of a golf ball. It was fluid. Was diagnosed as a thrombosed vein the first time and was told to take ibuprofen. It went away in about a month. The second time, I could not feel any thrombosis but had the same swelling. Went away in about a month as well.

Thanks for the response ED2013. My swelling looks like a golf ball and is about 3/4 the size as well.

No prob. I was freaked out about it at first. It can get uncomfortable when rubbing your pants and underwear. The second time I was off work longer so most of the time I wore loose sweats and it was much more comfortable.
