Most people describe recovery as mild to moderate discomfort for a few days.

Typical plan

• Day 0–1: Rest, supportive underwear, intermittent ice, simple pain relief.
• Day 2–3: Light activity only; avoid heavy lifting.
• By 1 week: Often back to work (desk roles sooner; heavy roles later).
• Sex: When comfortable—keep using contraception until PVSA clearance.
  Guidelines commonly advise avoiding ejaculation for ~1 week post-procedure.
