12 days post op

I was told by the urologist to change my gauze twice a day for a week and a half as part of a post-op care. So that’s what I did. — It’s been 3 days since I’ve stopped wrapping it and the level of sensitivity is off the charts. Lol 💦

Counting down the days to use it. ✊🏼

On a side note, there’s not really much pain at all. Just swelling that I’m hoping will go down soon.

Be careful, when the sutures start to loosen. You can still use skin adhesive tape to support the wound edges not to open when you get nocturnal erections.

True! I’ll probably do that before bed for a couple days at least 👍🏼

Looking good 👍

Why did you have it done?

in reply to CuriousQ

For cosmetic reasons. I didn’t have a single problem with my foreskin. Just always wanted to get it done tho

May I ask where you got it done and how much it costed?

I am thinking of getting a circumcision revision and I was quoted for $4500 for the procedure since insurance will not cover it due to the reason for it being cosmetic.

Thanks bro! 💯

Dang. Compared to the price I am going to have to pay that seems like a blessing. Lol.

I tried consulting with my surgeon before hand about the style I wanted but he did not give me the time and day. I did get the circumcision due to medical reasons but wanted to see if I could get the style I wanted the first time around to avoid putting my body through more trauma by getting a circumcision revision but it seems inevitable now.

Out of curiosity, where did you get quoted for the $3800 amount? Was it in the US?

in reply to reddc7

I was able to talk to the urologist a few days before the procedure and that’s pretty much where I laid down what cut I wanted and where he answered any questions I had.

I ended up going with the high & tight cut to retain the most sensitivity. I was told that in about a month and a half’s time, most, if not all, the swelling would go down.

Inevitably, I’ve gone through DOZENS of erections since my circumcision and that’s when you can really tell the type of cut I have. 👌🏼

The clinic that quoted me that price was in San Antonio, TX.

Me too, CUAN hospital? Te quedó muy chingona jaja

I have several before pictures.😅 I’ll see if I can do a “before/now” post later on to show you.

Honestly, I’m really happy with it. 💯 Seeing my penis cut and fully exposed kind of boosts my self-esteem a little more.🤷🏼‍♂️ I never had a problem with my foreskin and I loved it while I had it, but this is just something I’ve been wanting to do for the longest time.

The procedure was done free hand and dissolvable stitches were used to close the incision.

Thanks! I’m trying to care for it delicately. Lol

And so I’ve heard.. wish I was over the swelling phase already 😂

I was put under general anesthesia and about 2 minutes after that.. I knocked the fuck out. Lmao! So I didn’t obviously feel a thing.

The most uncomfortable part of it all (besides the swelling) is the stitches themselves. They either begin to itch or it hurts when they rub against the underwear. Just a matter of putting your penis in the right position to prevent it from doing that. I find that tighter underwear keeps it from moving a lot.

Recovery is going good. Just wish I was way past the phase of swelling lol

And honestly I was able to masturbate for the first time last night. ✊🏼🍆💦 Let me tell you.. it was a RELIEF from having blue balls! Haha! I just focused on stimulating the head and nothing else. I didn’t mess or go near the incision line and was VERY careful about it the entire time.

At least not right now cause the incision hasn’t completely healed 100%. That’s why I had to stimulate just the head.

Yea the stitches can be annoying lol

Pretty much. You’d be stroking your hand over the head and shaft all together.

Yo en CUAN, está por el novotel de las torres

No need for before pics.
