Don’t wear boxers after the procedure; instead, get some pairs of “tighty-whities” for the support and wear them for several days afterwards.
For icing, use bags of frozen peas or corn.
Get a bunch of DVDs to watch, because for 24 hours you may be sore in the groin region, making walking a bit uncomfortable.
