11 days after circumcision

I had a circumcision 11 days ago and just wondering if it's still in the process of healing or healed very fast? Only form of discomfort I'm now feeling is itchiness from the stitches. I've had no issues since the OP and erections dont cause any form of discomfort. Just worrying about stitch tunnels, should I give these stitches another week or so? Or is it better to get them removed because the whole wound site including the frenulum has healed up very nice and cleanly, but I'd say atleast 80% of the stitches remain. It just seems that compared to what others have been after 11 days mine looks like its come along alright.

Doing really well.

I removed the stitches around two weeks, as they were really really annoying and I wasn't even healing as fast as you are. Any tunnels that I had closed up fast.

Thanks man, probably will give them an extra couple of days, I was able to free a couple by gently pulling them but others are giving a bit more fight to stay in, so will leave them for now

You won’t get tunnels and they’re absorbable stitches so don’t need any intervention. I trimmed the ends off my stitches leaving the knots in place as they were becoming spikey. They fell off between three and five weeks.

Hi Man, that looks really good for only 11 days you are healing really fast a little bit like myself when I had it done. the stitches are quite annoying when they are sticking in everything. I removed mine within two weeks. over the next few days you probably could take out some if you are up to that your wound looks to have healed enough. Looks like a nice low and tight cut 👌

Thanks man

For only 11 days you look very, very good. No swelling on the inner foreskin and just a little on the shaft. Don't worry about the stitches till after 28 days. More than likely they will be gone by then. Your quick healing may be why they seem like they are taking a while. Are you doing the salt water soaks? That will help but you realy look very good.

Only thing I've been doing is keeping it very sanitary and showering once a day, I thinks that part of the reason it may have healed quickly as to others. My doctor informed to to keep the whole area as clean as possible, but minimize the amount of water that gets on it. As it's now been some time I'll try the salt water but other than that I've rarely got it wet and it's all gone perfectly

Looks really neat ! I waited until day 18, most of them came out with minimal tugging within a 24 hour span. When they all start to break down, you will know it's time.

Not what you're looking for?
