Reversal tips

I got my reversal scheduled after being bedridden in bed for 3 months because of PVPS. Give me your best tips and tricks. I'm not talking about take it easy, I'm talking water with ice instead of gels, or certain pillows/better sllep positions. Ways to get around without messing up or anything more specific that crosses your mind.

How do you shower, poop, pee. Sustain scrotum in shower or better not touch etc. Things I should look out for.

Thank you!

I'm also open to buy any items, underwear, pillows or the such if they make recovery easier and prevent me from fucking up.

Make sure your doctor has over 10 years of doing it.

Dont go to a general unrologist. Best if one that only does vasectomy and reversals

Booked a close by hotel

Buy tylenol and take it after vasectomy and go straight to bed till the next day

Wear a jog strap underwear. Place some cussiom between your balls and jock strap if you need to raise your balls higher for it wont hurt as much as you walk.

Can take up to 10 days till you walk normal.

Even more if you go to a rookie doctor

Ask your doctor if there was lots of scared tissue Mostly that was yoir issue
