The surgery was on August 7th at 2pm. This picture was taken 16 hours afterwards. I'm taking 2 vicaidin per hour and icing constantly, little discomfort, stayed in bed with wife assisting and only getting up to use bathroom. Discomfort while urinating. Was expecting more sharp pain, but it's a dull pain.

This picture is a closeup from the above photo that was taken 16 hours after the vasectomy.

Day 2. Stayed in Bed for 48 hours except for urinating. Still icing constantly. Tried not icing, and definitely could tell the difference. Still a dull pain and down to one pill every 6 hours.

Day 3. I stopped taking pain pills and could tell a noticeable difference. Took one pill and could feel when the pain pill hit. Was definitely not a 100% and stayed in bed another day, but got up to cook my food. Wife had to work, so the baby was dropped off at a sitters for the day.

Day 5. Feeling more myself. Was picking up baby (22 pounds) and feeling ok on one pain pill taken in the morning.

Day 7 and I am feeling pretty good. I cannot go without underwear yet though, as it is painful when I walk and I have not been on pain medications since day 5. It still hurts when I bounce or jostle it, so still wearing underwear. Would say I am feeling about 99% on Day 8 when this photo was taken.

"I am attaching the final photos I took at approximately 3 weeks. It's been almost a month and a half and I almost 100%. I am still jumpy and feel if my wife accidently hits me in the wrong place it hurts. However it is not constantly on my mind any longer".
