Patient's question:
I've heard that pain usually subsides after a testicular torsion surgery, but I started feeling pain a few hours after my surgery yesterday, and now there's no pain at all. Is this normal?Doctor's answer:
Under normal circumstances, the pain will persist for a period of time. If the pain duration is longer, additional screening is necessary to check if there has been a recurrence of blood and pus formation. Testicular torsion can also be called retrograde spermatic cord torsion. If testicular torsion occurs again, the best treatment is to undergo surgery. After the surgery, ice can be applied to reduce pain and swelling, and a "T" bandage should be used to fix the scrotum to ensure gradual and complete recovery of normal function.
