re: How much does a vasectomy hurt?

I had one Thursday

The procedure itself was basically not a big deal at all. While it hasn't been bad I will admit im sorer than I expected to be today. Stressing that it's still not bad and I have pain pills I could take that I really haven't. Swelling is finally mostly gone today but they are still fairly black and blue

I've been able to take it easy until this afternoon which of course brought some discomfort. Gonna be busy all day tomorrow so I'll prolly take my pain pills as prescribed for it

From what I've gathered the doctor performing it makes a BIG DIFFERENCE. They let general surgeons do it but I can't recommend a Urologist for it enough. The Neurologist generally not only does a better job of cauterizing the tubes and making it as painless as possible but also gave me a Valium to take about 30 minutes before the procedure and sent me home with antibiotics and 10 oxycodines in case I needed them

My understanding is that generally a general surgeon won't give any pills in advance or post procedure and only give the antibiotics if an issue develops later on. I much prefer it this way


Ohh, and the urologist said my dick is HUGE
