@peterj116 Would icing beyond first 48 hours help accelerate the healing process?

@mirsy Can't say I tried that.
https://keystoneurology.com/services/procedures/artificial-urinary-sphincter/artificial-urinary-sphincter-post-operative-instructions/ says "Apply ice packs (can be a zip-loc bag with ice or frozen peas / vegetables) to your scrotal area for 48 hours intermittently while you are awake."
These symptoms are normal for 4-5 days after
your procedure:
• Swelling of the scrotum; try ice packs and tight-fitting underwear to minimize the
swelling
• Bruising of the scrotum or lower belly
• Mild discomfort with urination
