Hi got my circumsision done 13 days ago. 1 side has opened up?? 😖😖. It seems to be healing well all round but I don’t know what I should do? Do I need this closed or will it be ok. It happened in the first week with night erections. Help please.

I would recommend you go back to your doctor. If you leave it alone and scar heals unevenly you'll be angry with yourself you didn't take the correct preventative action.

Hi Man, it should be fine it doesn't look infected or anything just keep it clean with some salted water. if it has opened a little there's not much they can do they won't restitch it. It will heal with secondary wound healing just keep a close eye on it and if you think it is infected go back straight away you would need some antibiotics.
