Hi does anyone have any recommendations for post circumcision wound care. I’m on day 11 everything looks good. Should I be keeping the area dry or should i put Vaseline? What works better for everyone and what insures a quicker healing time. I see many people have different opinions on this.

Yes , definitely keep the area(esp incision site dry) . Healing is different for everyone so just have a balanced diet and refrain from sexual activities or workouts till at least 4-6 weeks. Maintain hygiene at all times and if your sensitive you can apply vaseline on the glans. Also you can apply bio oil or other alternatives once the incision site has healed compeltely to lighten the scar . All the best !
