Dry skin cut frenulum

Hello, i was circumcised about two months ago due to severe phimosis and balanitis. 5 weeks after my circumcision i decided to have sex and things went horribly wrong. I dont know if i popped a stitch, or my frenulum popped. I felt somthing ripped in my penis i pulled out and i was bleeding profusely.

For the past 3 weeks the skin of my penis has been very dry. I get dryness at my shaft, penis head and i have like a scab bump on my frenulum from where i believe i was bleeding. I wonder if any of you guys have had this? I attached a picture.

In afraid to have sex from now on and i wonder if i will ever get better. I believe the doctor cut too much skin, i still have discomfort when i get and erection and i feel like the skin is stretching to the max

Any suggestions? Anybody else with dry skin on the penis? Please see the picture on the left that ive circled with black. Thank you

I would check up with your doctor and describe to him what you described to us here. To me, it sounds like your irritated your swollen frenulum and had sex a little early but I am no doctor so I can’t be sure of that.

I also have some dryness on my penis head (I’m about 14 weeks in the recovery myself) although the incision site and my shaft skin are moist or at least not dry. I’d advise you to not use irritating soap or body wash directly on your penis as that can dry it out. I had a scab on my frenulum from the day I took my bandage off on day 3 until about week 6 where it fell off in the bath without touch.

Gradually it should be ok. Give some time

What WNC98 said. Give some time as diptasu suggested.

Time cleared up all issues I had so should be same for you. Doing really well for 5 weeks btw.

I think you have the same lumps as me? What is ur? I’m on week 3

Im on my 9th week already after the 7 week and after i started using coconut oil some of my bumps did go away but not all of them

in reply toBigcut4266

Nice. I saw my doctor because I developed a lump that feels like a vein or cartilage and he could not guarantee it would go away. Did you you have a similar problem? Check my photo

I saw your pic. No i didnt have that lump. I hope it goes away.

Do you have pain or discomfort when you have an erection? To this day i still have discomfort . I had oral sex performed on me and my penis felt very very sensitive after i had an orgasm

in reply toBigcut4266

No I have no pain. Pretty easy recovery with the glue technique. How was masterbation for you? I hope they fine need to re open my penis to remove the lump :(

Masturbation feels better but after masturbation i do get discomfort. I bled from one of those bumps last week.

Hi, give it more time to heal before you start back again the frenulum area is always the slowest to heal. if you use some bio oil and massage your skin it should loosen over time. it could take anywhere from 6 months to a year before things start to feel normal again. I remember mine feel tight as well for a long time.
