I'm on day 11 since my op. I've had no pain etc but I'm wondering if I'm healing right. It feels like my skin is under lapped if that makes sense need the head of my penis. Feels like I need to pull the skin down. It's still swollen I know by does it look right?

Hi Man, I think it looks fine there is some swelling but this is normal your skin is under lapped because of this. do you try and keep your penis upright in your boxes this will help with the swelling if you can. How does your wound and stitches look keep everything clean and use some salted water to help keep infection away.

Hey man I’m 11 days post circ also. I have a fair amount of swelling too and it is causing the skin to roll over the stitches a bit due to the swelling ring. What are you doing for after care? Salt baths? Bio oil? Etc?

Yeah salt and bio oil I've been doing for about 10 days and its helped a lot. I spend an hour at a time in the bath so it has a good soak. Hopefully the rest of the stitches will come out in the next few days

Oh nice. At what day did you start the bio oil. I was going to hold off on that till I’m healed more...prob at the one month mark

Hi! Mine had the same swelling, it felt like having a rubber band inside. A lot of it started decreasing around 20 days after the operation. Also some fluid (grey/pink-ish) came out of the stitches on top. My doctor said that it is normal. Don't worry it will go away.

Not what you're looking for?
