There are several complications that are uncommon and are less serious. These include:
Chronic pain
This may take a few days or weeks to subside. This occurs to 1 to 2% of men after the procedure.
Sperm granuloma or lump in the scrotum
This is caused by leaking sperm when the tube is cut. This can cause discomfort but it goes away after a while and is absorbed into the body.
Congestion in the testicle
This may occur because of sperm buildup. However, this goes away a few weeks after the operation.
Spermatocele
This is a cyst formed in the epididymis or tube that collects the sperm cell.
Hydrocele
This is fluid surrounding the testicles which can cause swelling in the scrotum.
