do you have any advice to avoid something like this? i just had an orchi 2.5 weeks ago and i really don’t want this to happen. i hope your recovery goes well.

Just be as healthy as possible and demand that they give you antibiotics the day the surgery is over. There was no protocol to give antibiotics post these procedures for the hospital I am in. So maybe that wad what my problem was. But I also decided to start combusting weed one day after my pain got really bad instead of just vaping it like I had been doing. And that was also the day that stuff started to become infected so maybe I was at fault. I do not know, but as far as fighting infections and being ready for surgery, just be as healthy as you can be, be the weight you want to be before you have the surgery, drink water all the time and eat three balanced meals a day.
But again I've been seen a few times now by the urologist and they say it looks very good It's just scary

oh i’ve already had surgery. they didn’t give me any antibiotics which makes me worried. i guess if you noticed infection shortly after surgery then i’m good? i haven’t noticed anything except for a little swelling.

Yeah just keep an eye out for things like redness getting deeper, swelling starting back up again, discharge that is pussy or green or brown or yellow possibly, but even then if it doesn't smell bad sometimes it's just your body working through healing.
I had a very complicated package down there for many reasons, I have had past complications and whatnot so I think most people will not experience what I have.
