HYDROCELE: Hydrocelectomy problems I am having
Posted , 3 users are following.
Hello. I foolishly underwent a hydrocelectomy surgery for no good reason. I had an unresolved case of epididymo orchitis (which i still have) and a hydrocele on the same testicle. It is now one month after my operation and i have been advised to wait up to 6 months to heal.
Here are my problems.
1. My penis is shrinking. The muscles simply have lost the will to live. I noticed a few days ago that i could only get about 70% erect. I am no longer reaching my full capacity.. but not just this, I feel as though my penis is smaller. The inner muscles feel tighter and my shaft skin appears to fit my shaft differently. I can't quite remember how I used to look but something very odd is going on with my penis now.
2. They stitched they ball/spermatic cord to the wall of my scrotum?! What the f**k? If i had known this then i never would have had the operation. I also notice when i try to get erect that my balls feel super tingly (not in a good way) and then the cords linking my penis and balls feel very tight and straight like i have these long thin rods attempting to fit inside a basically flaccid penis.. oh but it's not just flaccid. It all just feels so different.
Please if anyone has experienced this post op, talk to me! Thank you

I also would like to add that the tight, shrinking feeling in my penis is like somewhere between taking loads of coke or ecstasy and w*****g too much. The inner muscle is tight and shorter.. and i can still ejaculate.. but a weak unsatisfying shot out of a semi. How could this happen to me? A man who has had a raging erection every single day this year leading up to my operation. since then i feel as though my penis is in decline. I am 24 years old btw and I am more depressed and suicidal than i could ever imagine was possible. I want to kill myself for ruining what was a perfetly good body.

I wish someone could help but no amount of therapy or counselling will make my regret and depression go away. I cannot be happy for as long as my penis is broken. And if I can't fix it then i don't know what I will do...
