normiss 806 #1 November 21, 2005 For those of the guys that have been neutered, how long after the procedure did you jump??? The procedure was a no-biggie deal (didn't even get good effin drugs afterwards!).... just wondering.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AdrenalineBluez 0 #2 November 21, 2005 I gave it a solid month just to make sure everything was healed and I had no complications. The Doc that did mine advised me that as soon as there was no tenderness and he emphasised NO tenderness things should be good to go... "Uh oh! This is gonna hurt!"

monkycndo 0 #5 November 21, 2005 I had mine done on Friday. I followed the doc's orders and waited till the following weekend. The stitches had dissolved and was all healed. Didn't have any problems. I was a bit worried on my first opening, but all was fine.50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Taylor610 0 #6 November 21, 2005 Had mine done on a Monday. They normally schedule them on Fridays to give you the weekend to recover before you go back to work, but I told them do mine on Moday so I could jump by the weekend. I did jump, but only a few times. The following weekend all was normal. I never did have any real problems with even bruising after the procedue so it really wasn't a big deal.

JohnMitchell 16 #7 November 21, 2005 I had mine on Monday, then was jumping by Saturday, but didn't do tandems until the next Saturday (12 days later). No problems at all. BTW, my wife was skydiving within a week or so after having each of 4 kids, so I really couldn't whine about a little couple of snips. Enjoy your vasectomy. It means never having to say you're sorry.

darrenspooner 0 #8 November 21, 2005 I took a whole vial (8 injections) of novocaine or whatever they squirt in your ballbag. I had excruciating pain through the whole procedure - felt every cut, yank and burn. Then waddled home. Balls as black as oil and as big as oranges. Felt like I'd been kicked in the bollocks by a horse for 7 days. Jumped again after 9 days. Just be careful when you tighten the legstraps. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dumpster 0 #13 November 22, 2005 QuoteHave you still got the balls to jump? GROAAAN!!! Actually, wait for things to heal up before jumping - You really don't want the brothers swelling up like a couple grapefruit - Might wanna consider a jockstrap or tighties for a spell, too. I got mine snipped long before I started jumping, but my occupation had me doing lots of lifting and pulling - I had to take it REALLY easy or I would have been in major trouble.

2fat2fly 0 #14 November 22, 2005 I gave it 2 weekends and then I wore a jockstrap and kept the boys snugged up. I didn't have any problems.I am not the man. But the man knows my name...and he's worried Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
firstime 0 #15 November 22, 2005 Give it week bro, I didnt listen to the Doc and my speedbag swelled the size of a grapefruit (didnt think that was possible). When I called him with my dilemma he laughed and said enjoy the pain. Then he could'nt contain himself while telling me to pack it in ice..F%^&ing smartass Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Miami 0 #20 May 8, 2006 Bringing back up an older thread... Anyone else have any interesting stories about their vasectomy? I just got snipped about an hour ago, now I'm laying on the couch with frozen peas on my nuts, hoping they don't swell too bad and that I'll be able to jump this weekend.Miami Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tri160 1 #21 May 8, 2006 Not a good idea even if they don't swell badly. I had mine done on a thursday tried to jump on Thursday a week later. Originally had little to no swelling. The jump itself didn't hurt but about 2 hours later i was laying on my couch sucking on vicodin and listening to my wife laugh at me. Not Funny!!!!!!!!

linestretch 0 #25 May 9, 2006 I waited almost a month and it STILL hurt. The biggy was the tandems ass against my groin.....mainly on landing and connecting in the plane. Opening was never an issue.
