Swollen after cycling
Hello everyone July 15 I got the ams700 cx 4 weeks after the surgery I got the green light from my doctor to start cycling if there’s no pain anyways I did it for the first time and got swollen and was in pain took some painkillers woke up the next morning no pain but was swollen for 2-3 days I waited another week I did it again there was less pain this time but got swollen around the pump as well my question is this normal should I continue cycling or wait for the end of week 6? And the swelling is in the balls only around the pump please help would be useful

Re: Swollen after cycling
I would check back with your doctor. Is the swelling in the shaft, around the pump, or both? At 4 weeks, I still had some swelling and discomfort in the shaft although I never had to take any painkillers, and had to massage and pull on the pump to stop scar tissue formation in the scrotum (disclaimer, I didn't start cycling until 6 weeks per surgeons instructions). But I never had pain or swelling at that stage of recovery. Just to be safe, I'd touch base with the surgeon.
