My husband had a Y shaped stent put it to return circulation to his legs. His surgery was a week ago and all went well until his testicles turned black. He also had some darkening on his penis. We went to the ER and his family doctor and they didn t seem concerned. However, after a week, there is no change. What could this be?
Thanks for asking in Chat Doctor forum In short: Why was the stent put? Explanation: Was the surgery for varicose or for some heart problem? Any stent if put inside leg can cause bruise which changes color. And if varicose, varicose veins can cause blackening of skin due to stagnation of venous blood there.
