What Causes Scrotal Hematoma After Having Vasectomy?

My husband had a vasectomy a week ago and has since realised he has a scrotal hematoma. It s very painful and he understands that resting is the best thing for it. My concern is that we are due to fly to Singapore from Australia in just over two weeks and I m wondering if it s safe for him to fly if it hasn t fully gone?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
dear madam
its unfortunate he developed the haematoma, usually a vasectomy is a fairly safe and simple procedure.
Now that it is resolving i do not visualize any further issues.
You can safely travel and there will be no problems, all I recommend is to use a scrotal support and not to lift heavy weights as a precaution till it resolves completly.
I find this answer helpful
