Day one after circumcision

[M6212]

Day one after circumcision. Any good advice? I'm 27 and I'm just resting at the moment. I was just wondering what helped you. Thanks in advance

Rest and keeping still is good. Take painkillers as necessary.

Warm salt baths on about day three should help.

I wore tight fitting pants to keep things still, this also reduced night-time erections.

Thanks for the advice. Last night was ok woke up 4 times because of them. It's swollen a lot today hopefully it will go down in a few days.

Hi Man,

Keep him upright as much as you can to help with the swelling and bruising maybe some ice as well would help not directly on though .

And snug fitting underwear if you can sleep on your side with your knees up it can help with the Night-Time erections.

Quick question. Is it normal for it to bleed?.

[MrMac99 in reply to M6212]

It can bleed a bit at times especially if you have had night-time erections how is the swelling and bruising?

[M6212 in reply to MrMac99]

I think that's what has set the bleeding off. It's still really swollen and the bruising is going. It's bleeding on the cut line unter some swollen skin so I can't get the air to it to dry it out. I have just cleaned it and I'm just going to leave it alone.

Yeah man just take it easy you could bandage him up with some Melolin dressing and some gauze dressing over that. you don't want the dressing sticking to your wound. the first week is the worst it should improve then.
