what's happening to our borad TMI

I specifically said I avoided pictures, y’all got issues

Do u kno wut a tmi thread is

My Foot Left

^^^ omg howwwlllling

Schmuck bait ya us.

I think my long-standing sebaceous cyst on my back heard me reading this thread - it went and got angry about 3 weeks ago.

I’d had it a long time, it used to have a sibling up near where the back of my neck meets my shoulder, but that got angry itself about a decade ago - it just slowly popped and ruined a few shirts.

This one, though, was down at lung height and when it turned heel it was really fucking with my sleeping. So after a few days I went to see my GP and they sent me to A&E (ER). I waited a few hours then I was seen by someone who said “take these antibiotics and hope it gets less inflamed, we’d rather not cut it in this state”. But it didn’t so a few days later I came back.

There’s not a lot of TMI tbh - because I’m in the soft decadent republic of Londonistan, I got about 6-7 local anaesthetic shots before the operation, and then one during, into the wound. The smell was apparently pretty bad, but I was face down and didn’t smell anything - I was impressed that the doctor considered it bad though, he works in emergency services!

But he thought he got everything and since then it’s just been coming in every few days to get the wound repacked. A nurse a week ago was muttering notes while working on it and said it was about 1cm deep, which is more deep than I thought I could go and basically not notice at all.

Basically I just wanted to be one of the cool kids.

I was telling my girlfriend about the operation and about how
I was face-down-but-actually-facing-right for most of it, and at the end while the doctor was off fetching something to pack the wound I shifted over to facing left, meaning that I was staring at the trolley with the bandages and blood and the bits of the cyst, horrible gory lining that it’s freaky to think actually came out of me.

And then she stared at me for a minute and I stfu.

Kind of

.....jealous?

I only ever go to hospital with wrecked knees or lungs it sucks

welcome to the club Andrew

Yeah I meant to say your story is an inspiration.

feel better morbs

get demmm

Good luck with the ailing, man.

hey guys are you ready for some real deal tmi?

i was gonna go to bed but i will stay up for this

ok so

When I was young (under 10) I developed and had surgery for a hydrocele, I think they said it was due to a natural hernia where the tube that went to my ball opened? got real big and they had to drain it, whatever

it returned in adulthood and was fine until it wasn't fine and started becoming annoying. it didn't hurt, it just got in the way, you know? crossing legs, riding a bike, wearing tight jeans, etc. I talked to a urologist abt surgery abt a year ago when my right ball was abt the size of a clementine (the ball itself was normal but the sac around it had filled w fluid to abt the size of a clementine) and I slacked on getting an ultrasound and making follow up appts and then scheduling it so I only JUST had the surgery for it today. Over the past year it had grown to about the size of a kiwi.

so anyway I got the surgery today!! my balls are now matching size and it's great, except for that they shaved my pubes and balls and i hate it and when i look at my scrotum i feel like what the dad in eraserhead must have felt like when he looked at his baby

also I have to keep ice and pressure on it, and it's unfortunate to have to apply pressure to your balls.

congratulation

i am not a ball sack doctor but dollars to ball sacks says your pubes grow back

i had surgery for that when i was two. guess they wanted to get it out of the way before they had to shave my sack

I was expecting way worse stevie but congrats anyway

Anything related to a man’s jewels is a delicate subject

yes gbx but WHEN!!!

*checks watch, holds finger aloft*

when i look at my scrotum i feel like what the dad in eraserhead must have felt like when he looked at his baby

🥝 🥝 💚

yes on the stevie scale i would give this a rating of mundane: not too much information
i fell asleep before i got to read it because i took a nonprescription sleep aid

it returned in adulthood and was fine

Did you mean to say 'fun'?

This one went flat

as twere

It was a joke about the reduction of the spherical mass of stevies testicle

I thought this board was all about listicles

Lessticles

elective ball reduction, impressive

good luck with the recovery, stevie.

a buddy of mine had mumps and one of his testicals grew to the size of a tennis ball. when it shrunk back down it became smaller than before, and never regained its full size

now thinking all kinds of things about testicle size

were mine always this size? are they bigger or smaller than they were a few years ago? what size are they even supposed to be

mysteries of the universe

Someone took a picture of 1 year old infinity buck naked and I’m here to inform you that testicle size does indeed change

ah c'mon man you know I meant over the course of adulthood

oh the always threw me off

kinda weird how the nutsack does the equivalent of holding oneself in one's arms tightly when it gets cold

you mean the... cremaster cycle

to be fair the testicle itself was always the same size, it was just surrounded by an unwanted balloon of fluid

if you want something less mundane you can read abt me fisting someone's shitty asshole during an awkward threesome with my platonic gay bestie

I Lost A Coughdrop in His Asshole: The ILX Gays TMI Thread

i remember once grossing my wife out by showing her the cremasteric reflex

eh?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cremasteric_reflex

apparently the testicles contract when they they are "stroked" or "poked"

this is not how my parts function

i will test this though

you stroke the inner thigh, not the testicles themselves. and then the testicles contract. it's fairly subtle but in my case visible.

stroking my inner thigh does nothing for my balls

well i hope they're still under warrantee

ilx user god?

would you like to explain this?

lol @ Stevie making sure to link the post where he started with "ok so"

this is not how my parts function

Same here. WTF is this even?
