A member asked:

I have to get my scrotum aspirated today because of fluid after surgery. what type of pain should i be expecting? will it warrant pain medication?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Resubmit: It sounds like a hydrocele will be aspirated. What operation did you have done? How long before the hydrocele developed was it done? Tylenol (acetaminophen) will do. A better answer can be given if you answer the above 2 questions. Good luck.

After a vasectomy, if you form a sperm granuloma, why wouldn't surgery be required to stop the leaking of sperm into the scrotum? It seems that anti-inflammatory drugs are recommended. Doesn't the leak require repair or does the leak eventually stop?
