What can the patient expect to feel like the remainder of the day after the procedure?
As with all procedures, patient response is varied. The procedure causes minimal trauma to the region beneath the scrotum, but there can be some tenderness and bruising. Most patients require only minimal pain medications such as Extra Strength Tylenol. After the procedure, most patients are somewhat tired and want to relax. Patients can do normal activities (walk around, dinner, etc.) if they feel up to it.
