Stitches opening???

Hey all, had circ done 3 weeks ago. While taking a shower I just noticed an opening where the stitches were. This probably happened due to all the elections at night. I called my dr and he said it’s normal but I’m a little concerned it won’t heal properly. Anyone experience this? Any feedback is appreciated.

Mine did the same. I'm just adding neosporin to it and noticing that it's getting better day by day.

Thanks for the reply. How far along are you? Do you wrap it up after applying the neosporin? I thought having it wrapped up at night would prevent it from opening up. Wishful thinking I guess lol

No I usually just lay around naked and let it air out. Have you been able to jerk off yet?

Not yet. Giving it some more time. It’s only been 3 weeks

This happened to me. It seems like the incision comes open a bit after showering. Did this heal naturally for you?

How it is now for you?

Hey, yes it healed up naturally. Skin is still tight. I’m applying Neosporin everyday to help with the tightness.

My incision always opens when I have a shower (a part of the incision). When does this stop happening?
