what if I don't use gauze?

[lemurcinaa]

did anyone have such a sensitive glance that they could not put gauze ?? I'm also interested in what can happen if I maintain good hygiene, just so I don't keep gauze for 2 weeks.

I removed my gauze on day four and did not use one after that. Kept the area cleaned and applied Neosporin 3-4 daily. Nothing happened!! Good luck

There is no need to put gauze over glans. Do you have wound there? Normally is enough to cover wound site itself.

About this , it's best to follow your doctors post op orders as he will know best . My doc removed my gauze on Day 3 after my circ procedure . I was sensitive too but the petroleum jelly helped me in this.

If you are feeling too sensitive and if topical moisturisers (non fragrant and non irritant) didn't work , you might have to get ointment prescribed by your doc. In most cases with time after circumcision , the glans gets desensitized on contact. All the best !

I stopped putting gauze after 3rd day, I take bath and clean the area with lukewarm water and apply neopsorin powder 2 times daily
