As I discovered on my disastrous attempt with a central incision, my scrotum is incredibly thick at that point and i made a very nasty mess. When I stitched myself up and the scrotum started swelling up with blood I did start to get a little worried.
But my logical mind kicked in and I cut a small piece of silicon tube from my coffee machine and inserted a drain. This made the swelling go down and as i recall i had the drain in for a couple of weeks before the bleeding stopped and miraculously I healed with no infection.
I was in a very bad place mentally at the time, I was also very lucky.
The skin to the left and right is much thinner and therefore a better place to cut.
I did the centre to have one incision. Big mistake.
This explains the mess that Dr. Kimmel left me with. Everything is fine now, but my second urologist had quite a time fixing me up.
