I didn’t get a video for mine. The doc accidently cut a blood vessel so he left one incision open to drain. But it closed up as cuts do and the sac filled with the continuous blood flow. By the time I got home it was the size of a softball. Two days later my 3 y/o son jumped in my lap knee first. As I hit the floor I saw a bright white light.

I crawled to the bathroom and lay curled on the floor for a bit. A visit to the doc and he said, “You son may have helped the healing along.”

For several days after I could GENTLY squeeze the sac and congealed blood would come out. It was pretty gross and never again will I allow anyone near that area with a sharp instrument.

That happened to a buddy of mine. His balls swelled up to grapefruits.

Problem was, the docs (and this is Navy medicine we're talking about) told him to take it easy for a few days but the post-op pain was so mild, he forgot about this and went about his normal activities.

Wound up in the ER getting his balls drained (and not in the fun way).

My pre-op video was a cartoon with two nutsacks speaking in British accents talking about the procedure. When the cartoon scalpel came out, I got queasy and left the room.
