Scrotum infusion
In a scrotum infusion , also called ballooning or saline , sterile isotonic saline solution is slowly infused into the man's scrotum . This leads to a swollen, heavily hanging scrotum, which is perceived as erotic if you have the right preferences. It is therefore an intentionally induced hydrocele .
For some time now, sterile glucose solution has also been used for scrotum infusion, with a smaller amount of infusion resulting in greater enlargement of the scrotum compared to an infusion with isotonic saline solution. The effects of a glucose infusion are also longer than those of an isotonic saline infusion.
Since larger amounts of fluid can be infused over a longer period of time and the body does not break down this amount of fluid immediately, it takes a few days for the swelling to subside. During these days, the scrotum must continue to be closely monitored to detect any infection that may occur .
Risks
Since this is an intervention, infection can always occur. Sterile instruments should go without saying, but do not rule out the possibility of infection. "Fournier's gangrene" is particularly feared , in which the infection migrates through all the wall layers of the testicle and the surrounding soft tissues and large areas of the skin can die. This serious complication can also lead to death. A severe infection of the scrotum can even endanger fertility. Hematomas caused by the punctures usually take longer to go away.
Men who at one undescended testicle suffered by a orchidopexy was corrected, should not use this practice because of the testicles is no longer free to move, but has grown on the scrotum. If the scrotum is stretched, there is a risk that the testicle will die.
No liquid should be infused into the testicles themselves, as the sperm cells form there and the pressure that then occurs in the testicle is not conducive to sperm formation.
