I went to my urogist, he discharged me today after 11 day of closing up my wounds with
flapping, still draining a little but i can go back to normal activities and work first of the
month.\

The urogist siad i should have no pain now with this final procedure i pain on the left side
of the groin area he did the right side of sactrom/ so if the pain continues or gets worse
he will order a catscan to see if there is a problem but doubts it

has any with this have continure pain after laping the sac and testicle
