Here are some ...: At this stage of post-hydrocelectomy, the surest best care is time and patience as long as slowly but surely getting better day by day unless superimposed infection may occur. The healing process highly varies reflecting the degree and amount of local tissue injury by therapeutic intention, surgeon's skill, patient's age, nutrition, medical comorbidities, etc. So, be patient and ask Doc timely.

A member asked:
I had a vasectomy procedure done in early December 22. The large hematoma formed in the right testicle within hours of the procedure. It is about the lemon size and does not feel like getting smaller. Shall I be concerned or do I just need more time?
