I read almost every post on this forum. Since has my circumcision and everyone said the frenulum area is the last to heal. However, while sitz bath, I saw that the knot of stitch under the frenulum fall off on its own. I hope all other stitches will fall as well within a week or two. But is it normal to lose the frenulum knot at first. My doctor has kept the frenulum intact and since day 1 I uses to feel heaviness in that area. Please comment your thoughts.

Congrats for getting circumcised! The frenulum area indeed is mostly the last part to heal except if it isn't cut away as yours seems to be. Therefore I don't think you should be worried that the stitch already has fallen off there. Within a few weeks from now on all stitches will have fallen out. Good luck bud!

Yaa..But I just saw that place has some secretions.. Transparent secretion. Therefore, I am bit worried. But I don't have any pain or other sensation there

If it's transparant then it's most likely edema. Nothing to worry about.

Yaa.hopefully thanks. I have a doubt..It is ok to have frenulum after circumcision? Or I should have removed that?

Removal of the frenulum is a personal choice. It's neither good nor bad. It only looks a bit neater if it's been removed. The anti-circumcision activists say that it's the most sensitive part of the penis but that's not my experience. I've experienced no loss whatsoever.

I belief the anti circumcision movement is bullshit. I hope this frenulum will not affect me.

You can always get it removed later if it affects you. I think I've been lucky the doctor cut it away.
