It might take several weeks for the tenderness to disappear. Resting, supporting the scrotum with an athletic strap, applying ice packs and taking pain medication can help relieve discomfort....I would suggest you to consult your surgeon or urologist for fallow up they will asses your present condition and help you accordingly.
