Step-by-step explanation:

Didn't provide the sentences but hope this helps!

After a vasectomy, a male patient may experience:

Discomfort and Swelling: Some scrotal discomfort, bruising, and swelling are common and usually resolve within a week.

Pain Management: Medications may be prescribed for pain relief.

Activity Restrictions: Patients should avoid strenuous activities and heavy lifting temporarily.

Follow-up Appointments: Attend follow-up appointments with the healthcare provider.

Contraception: Continue using contraception until sperm absence is confirmed (takes time).

Possible Complications: Rare complications include infection, sperm granuloma, or chronic scrotal pain.

Reversal: Understand that vasectomy is usually permanent, and reversals may not always succeed.
