Getting circumcised tomorrow

GravityGuy profile image
38 Replies

Hi everyone, just thought id do a before/after post as it seems a good way to get this stuff of our chests (or penis')

I have extremely tight phimosis, ive never seen my glans ever, my foreskin expands like a balloon when i pee and i have barely any flow, it causes me alot of trouble especially when trying to get semen out of such a small hole, after many years of deciding what to and many attempts at stretching its finally come to this. Im looking forward to being able to pee like a normal person, shoot cum, and without pain.

Ive read alot of your stories and its really inspiring to know that this community exists to help each other out. So thanks everyone, ill post again after the surgery.

Good luck! Im on day 8 after getting circumcised at 21. Swelling has come down substantially. Try to rest as much as possible and be patient.

Not at all. My uncle had it done when he was 56 if im not mistaken. Anyways, you should feel great relief after the procedure, when taking in consideration the level of severity on your phimosis case. IMPORTANT: Keep the area clean! Cheers 🍻

Thanks mate, yep its about as tight as it can possibly be. Ill be getting plenty of rest

it's an advice bro , be prepared to get irritated for at least 10 days , after that the pain and irritation will go down , and do not rush anything, healing takes tym , so just be patient ,

gud luck mate,👍🏻

This is exactly how mine was, in a way I'm glad to see that this is more common than I thought. I hope the surgery goes well for you, its worth the painful recovery I'm so much more confident than before. Best of luck

GravityGuy in reply toBryceD123

Thanks for your response, yeah my urologist said hes seen a few like this but generally not many this severe. What was it like for you to pee for the first time afterwards? Im lookong very forward to being able to pee without any restriction!

Hi Man, that's definitely the best option for you, once you are fully healed it will be much better and you will wonder why you didn't do it sooner. it will take some time to heal and will be uncomfortable at first but it will definitely be worth it. All the best

GravityGuy in reply toMrMac99

Thanks, ive been wondering for well over 10 years why i didnt too it earlier, i was always to embarrased about anyone finding out, and as i go for this tomorrow my girlfriend is the only person who knows. I guess im shy talking to friends/family about this stuff. Thanks for your encouragement!

MrMac99 profile image
MrMac99 in reply toGravityGuy

That's normally enough man I think most guys would feel embarrassed talking about it and even going to your GP to talk about it can be. as you get older things like this are not as big an issue. Your girlfriend will be a big help and I'm sure close friends /family will be as well when you are ready to talk about it.

Hi Man, if you get the time to read this before the op don't be afraid to tell the doc exactly how you'd like it if you have a preference. High, low, loose, tight and if you can or want to keep your frenulum. Either way all the very best and sure you're going to be thrilled with it.

GravityGuy in reply to8thfloorben

Hi mate, yeah cheers, i had an appointment with him last night, we spent well over an hour going through everything to get on the same page, i had many questions and im very happy with all his responses. Im looking forward to this being done, and after the chat we had, im not too nervous now

8thfloorben in reply toGravityGuy

Brilliant, too many guys go in and just let the doc get on with it then wish they'd said more beforehand. I even drew a line on mine which he was fine about! Hope you love it.

in reply to8thfloorben

Bad advice I’m afraid. With severe phimosis the surgeon isn’t able to retract and therefore is only able to cut longitudinally to release it and then around the circumference. This automatically dictates what you’d refer to as a low cut.

Sorry to hear that but at least you had the info rather than wondering afterwards. You have to have what is medically necessary and a lot of guys are going for low cut these days.

I am on day 29. I had done ZSR CIRCUMCISION. I am 32 years age. Had phimosis very very very hard foreskin. Never seen my glance in my life. Now day by day feeling good. Pee is very easy. No problems in pee. Not tried sex yet because doctor said after 45 to 55 days only i should do. But i wait more 2 months. No problem to wait. All i Just wishing for good sexual life. And i can wait for it some more days. I don't need any problems in future.

Good luck dude. I also had phimosis and finally went under the knife. That was 2 months ago, now not only feeling "normal" but also a better kind of normal.

There will be some discomfort after surgery but it will be worth it.

Are you still uncomfortable after 2 months? I’m 2 weeks in and my glans is still very sensitive to where I’m walking funny and feel pain when it touches my boxers. Did you go through this and if so when did it start to get better?

Absurd-Amnesiac profile image
Absurd-Amnesiac in reply tobabyblue1

I had the exact same. I had to keep it wrapped up in a bit of bandage or even TP to keep it from rubbing.

after about 4 weeks I noticed it wasn't hurting but it was still uncomfortable at times.

6 weeks was when I really noticed that it wasn't hurting or bothering me anymore.

babyblue1 in reply toAbsurd-Amnesiac

Ok that’s good! I’ve been reading about people feeling uncomfortable for months/years and it’s been scaring me. If you don’t mind me asking, how bad was your phimosis? And what bandages are you using?

All the best mate! Hope recovery goes well

I was done in November for mostly cosmetic reasons. Don't panic if it looks weird for several months -- mine is only now "settling down" and looking a lot better.

Not what you're looking for?
