DS was admitted through A&E for an emergency operation on his testicles on Saturday afternoon. They originally thought it could be a torsion but it was just a bad infection. Fluid was drained, cleaned out and stitched back up and he came home a couple of hours later.
He managed quite well Sunday and yesterday morning and then said pain relief wasn't doing much so he's been on codeine since yesterday evening. He's just said it doesn't feel right. I think he's worried that the pain he's experiencing is more than normal post op pain
DH is on his way home and is scheduled to take him for a private GP appointment about an ongoing lymphatic system issue at 7.30pm. DS is saying he'll just wait until then and speak to doctor but I'm starting to panic that I should quickly take him back to A&E.
DS said if it has since twisted it'd be dead by now so no point in rushing about.
DS is 15 and man sized, 6ft tall and not prone to moaning about stuff.
Any nurses about who have any idea about post op pain n boys.
