A member asked:
I had a vasectomy 16 days ago and the scab around the incision keeps breaking open and looks wet all of the time there is no puss, discharge, swelling?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It sounds: like normal healing ...the area often gets wet (baths, showers, sweat...... Try using a DRY sterile dressing and keep it dry....do NOT remove the scab prematurely! Hope this is helpful Dr Z
