How long ago was your circumcision? If it's still healing, most folks have reported good luck with Neosporin/Bactracin type ointments. If it's healed, a lot of guys seem to have had good luck with Bio-Oil.

My circumcision was just over 5 months ago now, I’ve been using bio oil to help smoothen out the scar which it has done massively but the scar is still quite sore/ inflamed which I’m not sure if bio oil is best suited for healing.

I’ll look into those two mentioned, many thanks for the reply

Inflammation will need you to take advice from a doctor

Thanks, is soreness of the scar line usual at 5 months post operation?

in reply toJuiceWrld666

Swelling is usual but soreness less so

Interesting, I seem to have it the other way round. I’ll try get in contact with a doctor, thanks

Neosporin and Bacitracin are just antibiotic ointments. At 5 months, they won't do anything. Check back in with your urologist.
