last november 2011 i had a vasectomy. both my testicles were normal prior to the surgery. after most of the swelling went away my left testicle was larger than my right and was not hanging loose and free in the scrotum like my right testicle. it was firm and kind of stiff and stayed up high in the sac. my urologist looked at it and wasn't concerned but did an ultrasound anyway. the results he said showed fluid around my left testicle. he said it might slowly go away or it may never go away. i guess it is a hydrocele. did i just have bad luck or could something i did or my doctor did cause this? it is basically painless but sometimes has that swollen feel and does not feel natural. sex is fine. its been almost 5 months since the surgery. i want to be back to normal. can someone tell me what options i have? i am not looking to sue my doctor, he has a good 30 year reputation. has this happened to anyone else? is this common after a vasectomy?View Thread
