Pain on and off in testicle after VARICOCELECTOMY.

Resolved question:
Little over 3 weeks ago had a varicocelectomy. still experiencing minor on and off pain in left testicle and little inflammation wondering if the procedure went ok and its normal to feel like this? No pain during sexual activity. No frequent urniation or pain during urination. no pain in groin area. Also when i do the cough test my left testi doesn't really move only the right one. Also no fever or nausea.

Hello. Thank you for posting your query at DoctorSpring.com
Minor pain on and off can persist for 6-8 weeks post surgery. There is nothing to worry and stay reassured.
Feel free to discuss further,

Hello. Thank you for the follow up.
You should wait for at least for 3 months after surgery prior to lifting weights. The testicular size shall return back to normal in 3 months.
