Oakland Vasectomy Reversal

After Oakland Vasectomy Reversal Surgery: A Look at Life Post-Op

Vasectomy reversal recovery is not a traumatic experience; don't worry. You've already been through a vasectomy, after all. A vasectomy reversal will probably feel about the same. If you could handle the vasectomy, you can handle an Oakland vasectomy reversal.

Immediately after Vasectomy Reversal Surgery

Right after your vasectomy reversal in Oakland, your vasectomy reversal doctor will cover the area in bandages and have you put on your athletic supporter. This will keep swelling down. Once you get home, you'll probably be sore or have some minor pain, which can be relieved with the medication prescribed, such as Tylenol with Codeine.

The First Few Days

The first few days following your vasectomy reversal in Oakland, you should take it easy, rest a lot and apply ice packs to your scrotum. This will help ease the swelling and pain. Avoid taking baths. You can take a shower after 48 hours.

After Four Weeks

After four weeks, it will be safe to resume more strenuous activity during your vasectomy reversal recovery such as lifting and exercise, so long as you wear an athletic supporter. You may also resume sexual activity at this time.

After Six Weeks

Six weeks after your vasectomy reversal procedure your life will be pretty much back to normal. You should be pain-free now and able to do all that you could do before the vasectomy reversal. You will want to keep in touch with your doctor and maintain your periodic visits to make sure your vasectomy reversal recovery is going as planned and that your fertility is on the rise.
