                        i am an 18 yr/old student and just went through a hydrocelectomy  five days ago.  my doctor made the incision on the right side of my  scrotum sac w/ four stitches.  He gave me eight Hydrocodones (Lortabs)  for the post prescription. Knowing i would be in severe pain the following  day i did not take any the first day and a half.  i have since taken one 1/4  pill two times per day.  This rationing not only increased the pain  but even now i am out of medication.  I was curious as to the normal amount   of medication given after a surgery of this caliber. Some other men who have  undergone this surgery said they were given much more.  Any information would  be GREATLY appreciated.
