hernia surgery testicle swelling

//bostonhernia.com/swelling-after-hernia-surgery This describes extra fluid, and why you get it after hernia surgery. I'm not sure it's exactly what you are feeling, but it may help explain things. Make sure you are following your post-op care instructions, too.

ve had a hydrocele surgery at the age of six, left side inguinal hernia surgery at the age of 10, and a right side inguinal hernia surgery at the age of 24. My right testicle have been attached closer to my body since my hydrocele surgery and I can clearly remember how uncomfortable it felt to have such an abnormal position of your testicle. After 20 years, I still feel some discomforting pains (on my right testicle) when exercising.

Three weeks after having a laparoscopic appendectomy I noticed some swelling and tenderness in my left groin. There was no bulge, but I told my doctor it felt like a hernia. He gave me an exam and told me that it was a small inguinal hernia. I scheduled the surgery to have it repaired, but while waiting to have that done I would occasionally have this discomfort on the upper-left side of my scrotum.

s becoming worse. it just started two weeks ago. the pain that i have is in my right testicle going to my lower back next to my kidney and butt. i have not seen any swelling. is this serious?

Flow is still excellent but pain in the testicles and scrotum, as well as swelling between the perineum and urethra remains. I saw my doctor (who assisted with the surgery) 2 weeks ago about the pain and he said it was nut uncommon and could actually take up to a year for things to heal up. I wanted to get another opinion about the duration of this scrotal and testicular pain and its duration. Is it really possible that this could last a year?

Hi, In 1999 I had a vasectomy and developed a hematoma after requiring emergency surgery to remove the blood cloth. The result was that the left testicle was fixed in the scrotum. When the surgery is done the testicle is attached to the inner muscular tissue of the testicle. This caused discomfort sitting or like mentioned with an erection. One thing that I ended up with was a small hole in the scrotum that never healed.

Two nights ago I noticed z watery swelling at the base of my Penis shaft. Further my spermatic cord as it enters toward my left testicle is quite firm and swollen. Really no black and blue- or constant pain.I also have a swolen scrotal sack with some sort of watery swelling, is all this normal?

The pain could be due to the inflammation post surgery. As the swelling resolves, your pain should decrease. One testicle being lower than the other is a common occurrence. However, if the pain persists or if there is discharge, please consult your doctor. In the meantime you can take OTC Iburpofen pain medication. Ensure to take this medication after food to avoid gastritis. Apply cold compress to the wound for relief. Take Care! Hope this helped and do keep us posted.

After I had open inguinal hernia surgery the left side under the incision became numb and is still part numb after two weeks. But the left testicle has become enlarged has not gone down. Could their be something gonig on other than post op swelling?

After the surgery I was experiencing severe pain and swelling of the left testicle. The testicle was also getting hard and developing fever I also had a knot right below where the scar from the surgery was located (on my left growing area) so the doctor did a ct scan and a sonogram and "determined" that I had a large hydrocyl that had surrounded my left testicle and a smaller hydrocyl that was under the scar from the surgery explaining the knot.

Hello, From the symptoms it can be due to epididymal cyst, spermatocele or a hernia (inguinal hernia). Spermatocele is a retention cyst of a tubule and is benign in nature. Usually they are left as such if not causing any symptom, but if they are causing pain, then they have to be removed. Surgery is the only mode of treatment for which I would suggest you to consult a urologist.

Some times due to some disease, a big right teticle which may occur/due to with a hydrocoele or a tumor, or if your left testicle is abnormally small which could be a result of damage from a prior illness or surgery. A hernia or varicocoele might create the impression that a testicle is larger when the swelling in the scrotum is actually not the testicle. An acute painful swelling of the testicle could be a result of a torsion and requires immediate medical attention.

A urologist and the surgeon both recommended to leave the testicle alone and not do another surgery and introduce more trauma. My question is: How long will it take for the testicle to decrease in size to a point where it doesn't cause me unbearable pain? I am okay lying down but sitting, standing, or walking causes tremendous pain that increases the longer I am no lying down. The urologist said it could take up to 2 months but I am skepticle and think it could take much longer.

The Dr said surgery went very well but it was mentioned that there was a lot of inflammation in the testicle which was not expected and he was not sure what from. My son had normal surgery pain but even after a week or so was staying in a lot of pain on the bottom side of the testicle. It hurt to walk, sit, touch it, etc. He was given Oxycodone to help with pain and it did not even touch it.

In 2006 came down with right inguinal incarcerated hernia and was close to loosing remaining testicle. Prior to surgery was told of the possibility of loosing the right testicle. I did not conscent and after supervision of a urologist, testicle was saved during the hernia repair. 2009 came down with an abscess on the right inguinal area and was once more concerned about the loss of the right testicle. After a several day testing had abscess drained successfully.

2- If money is an issue, get it done at an outside surgery facility not in a hospital, its cheaper, and has a lesser chance of infection... some hernia centers/ OBGYNs/Urologists and such have their own surgery facilities. That goes for anyone who needs any kind of surgery and is a little short on money a lot of people don't know this...trust me i work in the administrative part of a hospital (no medical experience) the difference in the price is HUGE!

my four year old has swelling in his private area we had an ultra sound and they said he was fine little while later they found traces of blood in the urine, but next time checked nothing, so now when he peed in the toilet i could see a red tint in the toilet.

Every once in a while I have a bad pain in my left testicle. Every couple of months it seems. I can barely walk, or move, without some pretty bad pain. It doesn't hurt when I sit still and don't let anything touch them. and it ususally goes away after a couple hours and has never lasted longer than a day. What can this be from? I had not ejaculated, lifted anything heavy or been stressed at all before. Seems like it came out of nowhere, Could this be a bruise or what?

I have read plenty of testimonies of those who suffered from scrotum/testicle pain after an inguinal hernia surgery. Many of you have described the symptoms that seemed so similar to mine, but seemingly you all wound up fine, or perhaps the same thing happened to you, but I'll never know, because the majority of testimonies are never followed up.

The painless lump if can be pushed back into the abdomen, it could be a hernia. More so if the swelling increases on coughing and decreases on lying down. Hernias are caused due to increased abdominal pressure like coughing, constipation or lifting heavy objects. So, avoid all exercises which increase this pressure. Go for aerobic exercises, like swimming or cycling. Even long walks would be beneficial. Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
