A member asked:
Husband had vasectomy 2wks ago, sutures are pretty much gone but incision looks yellow no oozing, no temp, no swelling is this normal?

I could be...: Two weeks far out of vasectomy, most likely, it would be okay as long as not hurting, feeling comfortable, ; getting better with no swelling as stated slowly but surely day by day. Of course, if in doubt, check with surgeon. For now, time with patience is the best medicine around. Best wish...

It depends: It is normal for a surgical incision to go through various stages of healing. If there is no discharge, no redness around the site, no tenderness around the incision site, and no systemic symptoms such as fever or chills, the wound is probably healing as it should. If there is a concern, a physical exam by your husband's doctor would be needed.
