48h after circumcision

Hi, 2 days ago I had circumcision (probably partial). I would like to know if it is normal that after such a time I can not pull away the remains of the foreskin, which is slightly swollen to wash the area of the stitches? After each urination I use a spray that disinfects wounds, but I barely can get to stitches. The doc told me to lubricate the stitching area with chloromycetin but it is hidden as i said before. Here is a link to photos: imgur.com/a/49qGdCs

See my p9sts if you can. Mine looked the same

Very similar to what mine looked like.(see pics on my profile). Its going to be swollen for a while so just do your best to keep it as clean and dry as possible. The swelling will go down and it will get easier to pull back the skin. Be patient. 2 days is very fresh

That’s pretty much how I remember mine looking. Follow your doctor’s instructions. Resist the urge to tamper with it! Sorry, hadn’t noticed it was an old post.

Not what you're looking for?
