This is how it looks now after getting rid of the black stuff, which was giving off the odour, how weird?

Hard to explain what it feels like, but I cant get it off. It's like its stuck to me and is part of the skin. Doesnt hurt or anything else. Family think I need to see a doc but idk.. maybe I do?

Oh and that red dot at the top? I think its dried blood... shat myself just now thinking it was a hole but there'd be pain elseπŸ˜‚.

This is a few minutes after my first salt was today.

Def see a doctor

Looks to me like it’s infected and if people in your family think you should see a doc then I would definitely go tomorrow and see one

Hi Man, it's the body filling in gap between your skin secondary wound healing definitely don't try to remove it I don't think it's infected but I would see your doctor to have it checked just in case. Keep doing the salted wash I would also keep it covered and it probably will scab over again.

How long does the frenulum on average take to heal? Don't suppose you know?

Also, if you look to the far left where the stuff ends, at the bottom, the bit of pink skin on the outside of this stuff, it's kinda sticking out as if it's another layer on top of the original skin. If that makes any sense at all? It's like a bump..

It varies with everybody mine healed quite quickly but some guys it takes a lot longer. in your case I think it will take a little while. you will have some bumps hopefully this will decrease in time it could take up to a year before everything feels normal again man. when everything is healed you could start using some Bio-Oil but not until you are healed. In the meantime keep everything clean you are susceptible to infection.

I had the same yellow stuff, I think it's normal. I'm 14 days now, the yellow is gone but the puffy skin bits you describe are still there

Tbh it's been like this for like 3 weeks now. Doc said it'll fall off within a month. Been told to leave the stitches, even though they're all literally hanging off πŸ˜‚. Other than that, he thinks I've healed alot.

Mix 375ml of cold water and coarse salt and soak it in for 15 to 20 minutes.. do it twice a day till healed.. thats what i did.. had no problems.. also had the yellow scabs but it some get dissolved every soaked and you gently wipe.. just dont force anything of

Why cold water? The doctors I've seen, and people on here say do it in warm/hot'ish water..

I was told cold and did mine in cold, maybe both will work? But cold sound better tho.. why heat up a wound?

Yeah I dont get that either.. but it's what the doctor and a couple of people on these forums have said. I personally feel as though cold water wont do as much as what cool boiled water would do. I'd get it up but this slough on my frenulum will just dry and stick to whatever I wear and be painful to part from.

Just out of curiosity, how long did it take for your swelling to subside enough for you to do any kinda of sexual activity? I had 2 docs tell me to wait another 4-6 weeks and its killing me πŸ˜‚. Man, my pipes could do with an internal cleanse after all this time of no action πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

I saw 2 doctors and both said it's not infected else it would be painfull and pussy. The first abd original doctor, tried to wipe it away but it wouldn't come off. The other doctor said it's some sort of granulatory (?) Healing thing... that's obviously not the words he used but I'm can't remember exactlyπŸ˜‚, was something like that. Was told not to have sex or masturbate for another month. Also been told not to touch the sutures either, which is annoying.

They reckon everywhere else apart from the frenulum has healed.

I've already been. They said its not infected and that it'll scab and fall off in a month.

Well he did say not to even clip then myself as it's not some ordinary knot they've done. Even if I cut it and it comes out, I could potentially leave some behind and it doesnt dissolve/heal properly. Guess I'm just gonna have to leave them in for even longer.

Did you clean the yellow thing or left it there to form a scab.. And how is the swelling now.. Our dicks looks similar,
