ODD STITCHING

[Nycpiza]

I apologize I don’t have pictures to show. But, I am 5 days post circumcision and just found out something a bit odd.

My doc used nondissolvable sutures to stitch my wound. The stitches are fairly far out apart from each other. This causes some of the I think inner foreskin to leak through slightly at 2 3 areas. So far, no infections or crazy complications. Just sensitive when touching those skin leaks.

I was wondering if this will cause issues healing or if they will develop into some kind of infections or odd lumpy scarring with skin bumps all around circumcision wound. Doctor told me not to worry about it as it will all just heal altogether, just maybe with weird scarring. I need some extra validations as I don’t live in a country with the best health system (cambodia). Should I be worried? I don’t mind odd scarring so long it heals properly and doesn’t have extra lumpy skin hanging out weird.

Nobody can guarantee what the end result of your circumcision will be. Keep a watch for infection ( circumcision-london.co.uk/i... ) and if you spot any please go to a doctor.

You’re fine, I know what you’re talking about. I had the same stitching it’s for minimal scarring. Get a gauze & apply pressure for about 20-30 seconds & the bleeding should stop.

there’s barely any bleeding to begin. But hey man thank you for the reassurance and tip! I definitely keep the gauze on for the meantime and hope I don’t get infection, bleed or scar too bad

Just bathe with soap & water, make sure to dry good!
