A member asked:
I had a orchiectomy on my right testicle about 3months ago and it's still sore to the touch a bit is this normal?

That area of a men's body doesn't like to be messed with and tenderness can persist for weeks. Absence of swelling and redness are favorable signs. I assume your postop visit went well. Your urologist is best to advise you,however.
