Hi there, I had a Orchiectomy just over a year ago, and soon after had pain at the inguinal area and inner thigh and knee, it feels like sciatic pain.
The pain hasn't really gotten any better, its seems to trigger the more active I am, or when bending forward.
The pain eases with rest and often completely goes, but the pain soon starts again with activity, walking bending etc.
Has anyone had similar, does it get any better?
Hi Chip5
I'm sorry to read about the pain that you're in, which sounds very unpleasant.
I noticed that your post hadn't had any replies yet so responding to you will 'bump' it back to the top of the discussion list again.
I'm sure that if anyone else in the forum has experienced this they will pop on to share their experiences with you.
Hi chips, my hubby had a hydrocele in December. And two days later was re admitted with sepsis and absyss of the testicle, ever since he has complained of a pain in the sciatic area down the back of the leg, especially when bending, some days it’s ok then it’s back! I put it down to the position that he was in during surgery but no idea?? He’s due to have a orchidectomy and gland removal on the 6may so I will ask the surgeon about it then,
I've had surgery in June. I'm getting spasms in the sack and pain in the inner thigh as you described. It also feels like something is going to burst especially when I'm active. I had an ultrasound and the surgeon says there is nothing unusual going on..I also have 2 small bean shaped lumps which according to the doctor are supposed to go away. Its pretty miserable
I had a double Orchiectomy in June. I still have 2 small bean shaped lumps in my sack. I get spams and that inner thigh pain that you spoke about
. I just had an ultrasound and my doctor said there is nothing that warrants any action and the lumps are going to go away. It's p6 miserable and not getting any better
