relax, relax, relax....your doc has probably done lots of these....and knows what he is doing. I have had the surgery, several times in fact, before it was finally "cured". I am sure doc will take care of you...make sure you ice it down to reduce swelling, he will probably insert a drain, nothing more then a rubber tube, and hold it in place with a stitch or two. You can use a jock, or susspensory (basically a jock with a hole in it for your penis to hang out of) for suppoort...use it...no support will defintely cause you some issues---PAIN. Take your pain pills and relax. It is no big thing...
