Question 1

Three weeks after laparoscopic inguinal hernia surgery i'm getting off and on testicle pain on both sides.  is this normal?

Accepted Answer

Some times when the scar tissue is settling may get pain, go back and see your surgeon for a follow up care, and will explain to you the reason for your pain.

Question 2

70 days after inguinal hernia surgery i still feel mild pain above my testicle as if someone is squeezing it. is this normal?

Accepted Answer

Two months after hernia repair your body is still healing--the pain you are describing is understandable. However, this pain should lessen in time--if it is getting worse, it would be wise to return to see your surgeon. Occasionally, nerves are irritated by this operation that can be blocked if chronic pain develops.

Question 3

Suffer retractile testicles after inguinal hernia surgery. will this go away or stay like this forever? it's been 2.5 months. any tips to make it go?

Accepted Answer

I admit i don't have any research to quote you, but in my experience this somewhat atypical problem should be self limited. You could try applying warm heat to the scrotum, in the privacy of your own home, of course.  This would cause the cremasteric muscles to relax to drop the testicles away from the groin. It's worth a shot. Good luck.

Question 4

What if one testicle now hangs lower after inguinal hernia surgery?  is this normal?

Accepted Answer

One testicle almost always hangs lower than the other; this is normal in all men. (Most commonly the left is lower, but it can go either way.) I'm guessing it's always been that way for you and you're now just looking more closely. Hernia surgery is not likely to make much difference -- but even if it does, it's not a health concern.

Question 5

Fluid around left testicle. after inguinal hernia surgery. it only 4 days since surgery. is this normal? is it serious? and will it go away on it own?

Accepted Answer

Discuss with your surgeon. Would think it is normal.

Question 6

Suffer retracted testicles after inguinal hernia surgery located in superior aspect of right hemi scrotum. will this go away or stay like this forever? it's been 6 months. any tips to make it go? i am 21 year old?

Accepted Answer

Have your testes moved up and down or are they always stuck up high? It has been 6 months so less likely that post op complication will go away. The testes are still in the scrotum so you should not have problem with fertility. However, I still recommend a urology consultation for the appropriate advice.

Question 7

I had inguinal hernia surgery without mesh two weeks ago on left side. now when i touch my left testicle it feels hard like a small stone.

Accepted Answer

your surgeon.  It might be vascular injury to your testicle.

Question 8

I m 18 years old and had a left inguinal hernia surgery. i am having slight pain in left testicle and the cord above it. the pain last for few seconds?

Accepted Answer

You didn't mention when you had your inguinal hernia repair relative to your testicle pain. If surgery was recent, go see surgeon regarding testicle pain. If surgery was years ago, go see your doctor for possible infection or torsion.

Question 9

I've recently had inguinal hernia surgery  with mesh and now my right testicle hurts.who do i see?

Accepted Answer

You need to see the surgeon who performed the surgery which is typically a general surgeon. If your surgeon is unable to identify the problem, you will need to see a urologist for further evaluation.
