Recovery time?

8 days in and balls are still swollen, bruised and I feel like I've been kicked in the nuts everyday. When does it start to settle down? Meant to be back at work in a day or two, not sure if I'm going to be able to go back at this rate!

Good luck

Are you wearing tight underpants? Found them a godsend after mine, I also had an infection in my epididymis which was bloody awful!!

I had mine a year ago and it went smooth. I had some pain for a few days but I agree with the others, keep up with the pain meds on schedule, tight underwear or jockstrap and a bag of frozen vegetables on your scrotum. I prefer corn or peas. The tight underwear or jockstrap 24/7.

Not what you're looking for?
