I had a partial circumcision, I can I pull the skin back and leave it open to dry
Looking at this picture can you suggest if the glans and any other area still looks swollen
When I pull the skin back my head looks really big is this due to the swelling or just my penis head is big you think? (Before surgery with skin on I never felt that the head was so big so I’m guessing it’s swelling?)

The whole penis is swollen , how long since circumcision?, it’s takes atleast 4 - 6 weeks for everything to calm down maybe longer, just curious how come only partial and not full?
I have just completed 5 weeks and now in 6th week (I had a infection in end of 1st week so not sure if this has delayed the healing and swelling)
I could not pull skin back and hence doctor said partial circumcision and I was not sure what is right and wrong. I have now gone to a 2nd urologist to show the area and he said it’s all done well and it’s healing so I’m worried hearing on this forum that partial circumcision is not good?
In my opinion, this is the right size of glance. When you were uncut, the foreskin was continuesly compressing your glance, so the glance used to shrink, and you were underestimate the size.
But, you have to apply some oil or some creams like lotions with vitamin E. And keep the stich area moist. Otherwise, it will not let you even walk freely. (Due to high sensitivity of scar area)
I'm telling you this, because I have been thru Partial circ. Now I feel that I should have done full circ.
I have consulted my doctor, but he said that everything seems normal ! But, the pinch feeling and sensitive scar is making me nervous. The pubic hair also irritates the dick. I am not seeing any way out of this.
I have tried by using new underwear of modal material (Damensh make brief). It helps me and gave 50% okay feeling.
My partial circumcision is still not giving me peace
While walking the half open glans rubbing to underwear give a slight discomfort (like it’s a burnt skin and cloth rubbing on it)
My glans still feel moist as the leftover inner foreskin is keeping the glans moist and the open glans are not completely drying out
Also my inner foreskin is feeling tight and while it moves back it hurts a bit until it completely retracts.
I went to two general sergons who said it’s all ok don’t need to go for full circumcision
But when I keep my glans fully retracted for few hours it dries out and I feel little better so I’m personally feeling getting fully circumcised is the right thing to stop the pain I am going through
I will be trying a urologist this week and ask him for taking my case and give me a date for surgery (will also ask him what is the best cut high or low as I am grower so I think low and remove most of the inner foreskin
So, you are keeping your glans half covered all day.
Tell me, that when you wake up in the morning, what's the condition of your dick? Is your foreskin in a retracted condition, or is it half covering the glans ?
In the day I have been keeping it in front which half covers the glans
This causes glans to get moisture due to inner foreskin and when rubs to my underwear it pains and kind off burning feeling
When I keep it retracted mostly the foreskin does not go back in front by itself as my glans are big and I feel the doc who did my partial circ has kindoff made the inner foreskin bit tight while stitching and hence also I feel the frenulum area but far as more skin pulled and stitched
If I get an erection at night foreskin if covering glans it goes behind glans by itself and when I get up in morning the foreskin is still behind the glans due to my glans being a little big as described above
I think its not the reason that your glans is big ,but this same condition happens to me also !!!
My glans is also big !!!
Sorry, infact, the area behind my glans is shorter than the glans. I can see a deep crater behind the glans. LOL.
Nowa days, I have started keeping the foreskin retracted. And , for this , I don't have to make any efforts. Its natural. No matter how much pain I feel, no matter how much the underwear rubs it, I keep the glans open.
I think that after some months , it will get used to it..
