Erection after circumcision

[Marky95]

OK so I am now 12 days post circumcision and I am just curious if I am aloud to have an erection? I still have all my stitches in and swelling but I'm finding it tough to try keep control of not having erections.

Any help or advise would be appreciated.

I'm on the same boat, hoping someone comes up with a better answer than this but from what I can tell, so long as your stitches don't tear it should be fine, - i went to get checked out for some abrasions on the glans (not for this question specifically) and asked if the stitches look ok ( i have been having raging erections and nearly half or more have fallen out) and i was told that everything looked great, turns out that after 7-8 days it's possible for the stitches to start falling out because the fusing of the skin is well underway by then. So in short, i think it's ok but I'll be waiting to see if anyone else can weigh in on this EDIT,

I FOUND THIS ON THE SUBJECT

I found this doctor answer really helpful, and thought you might too: "Post Circumcision - Day 19. Frenelum intact, 45 absorb. sutures still there. I started having periodic full erections. Is it a problem for healing?" htap.us/2cs1ye

SECOND EDIT! I found this doctor answer really helpful, and thought you might too: "I'm on day 11 after my Circumcision and as far as my GP is concerned all is healing well, some the stitches have fallen off but there has been no complications, my concern are erections, and if they could be damaging to my healing (terrified of this)?" htap.us/2cs2m3

I would say 12 days is to soon, wait at least another week.

Wear tight underwear to reduce movement, I would try and think 'negative' thoughts whenever he twitched !

A cold cloth may help.

Let it be erect . Natural process should not be obstructed
