Surgery For Undescended Testicle- Frequently Asked Questions

An undescended testicle is fairly common issue, especially in premature babies. In many cases, it will resolve on it's own, but if it does not, surgery is necessary. Pediatric Surgeon, Dr. Andre Hebra discusses the laparoscopic approach used at the MUSC Children's Hospital, and parents can watch this video to find out what to expect before, during and after this procedure.

@mazin2892 Sleeping facing up is actually the best for you anyway, and the weird feeling will go away. Maybe you just need to piss.. and you'll get used to walking in a day or two, the bandages will come off by themselves, and try to stay regular as far as showering and going to the bathroom. Try to refrain from masturbating as well.. If that's a regular thing.. I'm 15 now.

@uenragedbro thanks man ... but ive got a 'few' more issues. (sorry!) (Btw ive actually just had mine...did it yesterday). i cant seem to find a comfortable sleeping position other than facing up, also i get this really weird feeling, i woudnt say its painful but its really weird, around my scrotum. also my bladder area kinda aches. and i had a look at it, disgusting is an understatement. also how long till i can walk around properly and take the nappy thing of.

Mega thanks btw how old r u now

@mazin2892 Yes, the procedure is the same throughout all ages. The only long-term effect, not really problem, are the scars. There are two slightly unnnoticable scars where your testicles were initially, half an inch across, and a small, unnoticable scar where the scrotum and the penis meet. It's not painful after, and I was only in the hospital for an hour for the surgery and maybe another 45 minutes to an hour post surgery. This surgery doesn't limit you from having a sex life.

[mazin2892]

@uenragedbro yes please, though im 5 yrs older than you the procedure will be the same (im assuming)

what are the long term probs-what can and cant you do after the operation-how painful is it (after) and how long were you in hospital.

@TheMegaDogsandcats I had this surgery when I was 13, and they were in my lower abdomen. If you have questions, I can answer.

Great explanation, it would be more helpful if you had mentioned about an older kids like 14-15 years old. Thank you.
