circumcision After 5 weeks

I had a circumcision 5 weeks ago. However, when I have an erection now I still have intense pain due to the tightness of the scar. It feels and looks just like the tight phimotic ring that I was trying to get rid of. Is this normal?

That's definitely not normal! You should go back to the urologist for an examination.

I just thought maybe it is because of the stitches and it will get better

Hi mate. I’m post 11 weeks and the tightness for me only stopped at week 9. I wouldn’t worry about this. I still have some swelling too which is going down very very slowly.

Thanks

I think with erection the skin will expand and as time goes on you wont feel pain anymore. Im on my 8th week now, and the pain is better than the 5th weeks.

Thanks

The skin needs to recover its elasticity in order go expand according to.the circumcision , you are totally fine man.

Apply Bio Oil every day 2 times for 2 3 months fo help.it . Just put a little on a finger and rub it on the scar line

Hi Man, yes your skin should stretch eventually the erections won't feel as tight and your scar will soften over time it probably took me over a year before I could say everything felt normal. as Marions said in his post the bio oil is very good I used it and found it helped me a lot you may not notice it but overtime it does help.

Thank you i will try it !

Bucky85 must have a foreskin fetish. Probably circumcised as a baby, and blaming his erectile dysfunction or some other problem on being circumcised. He's always referring guys to foreskin restoration sites. Must think there aren't enough foreskins in the world.

Bucky85 certainly has a foreskin fetish and he isn't even circumcised himself. He has admitted that awhile ago.

Maybe he's always wanted to be circumcised, but is afraid to have it done. Something is driving his crazy obsession. Maybe getting circumcised would help him to get over it.

It looks good. However, I would check with your doctor to make sure that all is going well since this was your problem before surgery.

It’s normal. New scar tissue no matter where it is, does not yet have the elasticity that other skin on the penis and body has. It takes time. Healing goes far beyond wound closure. The scar tissue is still changing for months after a cut or incision. On locations on the body that are not under tension like the arm, leg or torso, you don’t notice the tightness but it is there. The penis goes through great increases in size compared to other body parts. This puts a lot of stress on that newly formed tissue and thus it is much more noticeable and annoying. It will improve. Rubbing some coconut oil may help if the skin is really tight and gets dry.

Not what you're looking for?
