I don’t think there should be any pain a month after varicocelectomy and a recovery should actually last one week while resumption to full activities may take up to three weeks.
Have you had a follow-up with your doc to see if everything’s ok?
There are certain complications that may occur after varicocelectomy and formation of hydrocele is one of them. Hydrocele is a fluid filled cyst around the testicle in the scrotum, if one of your testicles have been additionally swelling (even a month after), you should certainly report this to your surgeon.
Also, it may happen that one of the arteries bringing blood to the testicle get damaged or even some of the nerves, which could be causing this prolonged pain.
Unfortunately, nothing can be said without examination, so I would call my surgeon if I were you. |

| THE DOCTORS DONT KNOW SHIT. GO SEE YOUR DOCTOR WHO DONE THIS AND IF YOU ARE CONTINUALLY HAVING PAIN, WELL YOU WILL BE HAVING THIS OFF AND ON FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE. LEARN TO LIVE WITH THE PAIN. I HAVE. YOU MIGHT GET HELP FROM PAIN MANAGMENT BUT IT MIGHT MAKE THINGS WORSE. IT DID FOR ME. THE DOCTORS HAVE NO CLUE AS TO WHY THIS HAPPENS AND ONLY IN CERTAIN MEN. AND WHEN YOU KEEP COMPLAINING OR GO TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM THEY THINK YOU ARE A DRUG ADDICT. THEY DONT UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU ARE GOING THROUGH. THEY THINK CAUSE THEY CANT SEE IT ON AN E-XRAY OR ULTRASOUND THAT YOU ARE FAKING IT. THE SURGERY WENT FINE. THEY DIDNT TELL YOU THE POSSIBILITY OF THAT YOU MAY BE IN PAIN FOR TH.E REST OF YOUR LIFE |
