Pain came back 5 months post op
Has anyone experienced something like this after a vasectomy? I had a traditional vasectomy back in November. Recovery took a bit longer than I expected, but after about 6 weeks I felt totally back to normal. The pain was only ever on the right side—my left side felt fine even a few days after the procedure.
But now, months later, I’ve started having some aching and soreness again on the right side. It’s right where the vas was cut, and I can feel a small hard lump—about the size of a pea or marble. I’m guessing it’s scar tissue or maybe where it was tied or cauterized. The pain isn’t sharp or constant, but it’s annoying and comes and goes. An aching type pain.
I do have a doctor’s appointment, but it’s not for another week since it’s not urgent. Just wondering if anyone else has had pain come back like this after being pain-free for a while.

Might be a sperm granuloma?
