Is swelling in the groin area normal after orchiectomy? The scrotum isn't swollen at all so it seems strange that I would have swelling in the groin. It's sore too.

There are a lot of blood vessels that were cut in there. It will swell.
I used frozen peas to ice the area. Helped some. You also may want to check with your Dr.
Congratulations!
