The main side effects after testicular prosthesis implantation are infection, local tissue hardening, prosthesis displacement, pain, and incision cracking.
1. The prosthesis testis is a foreign body to the human body, the most common side effect after implantation is infection. In addition, the selection of oversized prosthesis can cause pressure necrosis of the testis and its tissues, which is also one of the reasons for the susceptibility to infection.
2. After testicular implantation, since the prosthesis is a foreign body, the body will form a kind of envelope around the prosthesis, which is actually a kind of protective reaction of the body, and when the envelope thickens to a certain degree, it will start to harden.
3. There are many other side effects or complications after testicular prosthesis implantation, such as cracking of the incision, resulting in extrusion of the prosthesis. An oversized prosthesis with uncomfortable scrotal tension can be painful and even lead to displacement of the prosthesis.
Testicular prosthesis implantation should be performed in a regular hospital, and after the surgery, you should follow the doctor’s instructions and seek medical attention if any side effects occur to avoid delays.
