hello
I had surgery for testicular torsion
and since recovered but still have inflammation
in my left testicle and its been 7 weeks
and my right testicle was the one treated for testiculr torsion
there is no pain but I'm concerned
my doctor said that its going to take time to for the inflammation go down
my question is how long should it take for the inflammation to go down?

How are you? Testicular torsion is considered an emergency. Usually, the unaffected testicle is also secured, because it is at increased risk for torsion at a later date. If surgery is performed in time, complete recovery is expected. After surgery, ice packs will relieve pain and swelling. You may wear a scrotal support for a week after surgery. How long the recovery will take will depend on how the tissue recovers and responds. It is recommended that you resume normal activity gradually and have regular follow up with your doctor to monitor the progress of your recovery. Seek are immediately If there is sudden severe pain in the testicle. The spermatic cord may be twisted again.
Take care and regards.
