Swollen testicle post-op castration

Starlight

Warren Veteran
Lynx has one swollen testicle, following his operation today.

Nurse said could be haematoma (sp) keep eye, if not gone down by Monday, bring in, if worse over weekend, bring in then...

I just feel it is a bit more urgent that they seem to think :?
 
Is he on Metacam?

My vet tends to prescribe Metacam for any swelling and then keep an eye on it. So far, that's always solved it.
 
Charlie had a swollen testicle after his spey the vet said it was very common, she did say to bring him back if it hadnt gone down in 2 weeks but it did go away :) xx
 
Yes it is fairly common, it is normally fluid build up. Try to keep him as inactive as possible and as others have said he definitely needs some metacam. If it hasn't gone down in a few days as the vet said he may need some baytril.
 
Biccy had this.

Vet also said haematoma gave him a pain jab at the vets and it went in 9 days.
