Is Pain In Groin Muscle Normal After Vasectomy?

Hello. I just had a vasectomy completed this last Friday. I feel that I am healing rather well, I have minimal bruising, no pain in the scrotum/testicles, and my sutures are healing nicely (no sign of infection). However I do have a pain in one side of my groin muscle. Can this be normal?

Thanks for contacting HCM

I am sorry to hear that you are having groin pain after vasectomy. This is a normal aspect of vasectomy. During the procedure the surgeon pulls on the vas deferens and this can cause pain felt in the groin. I recommend taking Tylenol or Naprosyn for the pain. It may also help to wear tight underwear. If this does not help then I recommend seeing your doctor again fro follow up
