I got the snip last week Wednesday and only really felt pain the first day.  I had kept them in a Jock and iced and took it easy for the first three days.  I went to work MTW this week with the jock and everything was fine.  Had today off and walked around for about 45 minutes with just Duluth boxer briefs and now they are pretty sore.  Is this normal?

You're asking GD instead of your doctor.

I wore compression shorts for a month.  Tried to switch to boxers after a week but the boys just weren’t ready.

Most likely the Doctor left something inside your nut sack and the nurse forgot it during the count. Could be gauze or it could be a scalpel.

I don't know.  They say it affects everyone different.  I got busy that night and did a full lifting routine the next day (upper body).  Never really skipped a beat aside from just watching some tv that same afternoon.

Had mine almost a year ago And my balls hurt every single day. Have had numerous follow ups with the doctor at this point and they don’t know why.

Some days it’s a day long dull pain and others it’s not an all day pain but just sporadic pain that feels like the tube they cut is trying to pop through the skin.

Back in 1977 a buddy of mine had a similar procedure done on his nut sack. The doctor said to put Hursheys chocolate around the sack to ease  the pain. He fell asleep watching Monday night football with his pants down. His Chihuahua happened to pass by and licked off all the chocolate from his balls while he was asleep. When he woke up his dog was dead.

I had my prostate taken our Monday.

My balls are swollen to the size of grapefruits.

Had mine done in '78. Had it done on a Friday, iced the boys down over the weekend. Back hanging drywall on Monday morning. Only discomfort was it was South Florida in August, and the stubble growing back in.

I felt like I had been kicked in the nuts for almost a week, finally took some NSAIDs and found out how to lay on my stomach to kind of stretch that area out, felt better overnight.

Things felt fast and loose down there for over a month, I didn't really trust lifting heavy things for awhile and I was very aware of them down there.

Soak them in ice water and Epson salts for about 45 to 60 minutes.

On day 6 or 7 I jumped out of the bed of my truck and landed flat footed.   Don't do that.

I’m in exactly this situation.

@rogueboss try taking a teaspoon or two of the papaya seed powder you can buy from amazon once or twice a day. I had (maybe) some relief after 3 months of taking it.

I think the issue is our body isn’t absorbing the sperm so it’s trapped in the epididymis.

Mine ached for months afterwards.

Thank you. Ordering some now. At this point I’ll try anything.

Have your wife give you a good kick to the nuts. A little “hair of the dog” will reverse the process.

Yeah I ached for quite some time. Both sides got granulomas. Doc didn’t believe me on the phone, but had me come in anyway. He said he’d never seen both sides before, but agreed that’s what was happening. Basically had to wait 8-12 months for things to get more or less normal. Still get epididymitis a couple times a year, and never had it before the snip.

Still I’ve heard other get worse so I don’t complain much.

It slows down (or maybe stops) the production of sperm. Some people use it as a form of male birth control.

There’s really no cure, the doctor said we could try reversal but not convinced it would relieve anything and only a 60% chance it would be successful in reattaching everything anyways.

Post-surgical pain can last several weeks or months afterwards.  In the case of my last hernia surgery, it was hurting 6 months after the surgery was over.  I thought I had ripped a new hole in my side, but my doctor said this was not unusual.
