The nurse actually advised me to avoid swimming for at least 2 months. I swam 6 weeks after circumcision, when it healed up and stitches were removed. Some parts of the skin became itchy which got me worried about possible infection. Nothing happened, but I stayed dry after that, until 2 months is over just, in case.

Just sharing what I did.

I was at my cottage this weekend and I chose not to swim in the lake quite yet. I’m basically 4 weeks post op. However when I’m back home next week I’m going to try and start swimming at in our pool. So I can’t really tell you yes or no really.
