Husband had fem to fem bypass and bilateral fem pop bypass. now his feet and genitals are swollen, but not painful or discolored. he is too embarrassed to ask surgeon if this is normal? he is 4 days post op?

He MUST discuss this with surgeon. Most likely normal postoperative swelling and edema but could also be wound infection - if so, potentially very serious. Can’t tell without seeing. See surgeon next 1-2 days.

Please go back to your surgeon. He has seen it all. Don’t let your embarrassment get the better.
