Circumcision

So it has been 3 years after my circumcision and my penis still has these bumps near my circumcision scar which I think are the remnants of the stitches. I think this is not normal because of what I see on the internet, if so is there any chance that it will go away?

If they haven't receded over 3 years there is slim chance that it will go down now . Any stitches you had would have dissolved by now if your surgeon had used adsorbable ones . If he had not used adsorbable ones , he would have asked you to come back for its removal and this kind of suture usage is rare. So if in fact you somehow have sutures retained , you definitely need to check back with your surgeon and deal with them . In the case its not , maybe you have to ask your doctor what to do now. All the best !

Ps - it's most likely that those bumps were inflammtory reaction to stitches that occur in many and usually do down after a few weeks after the circ. If they haven't , maybe there is an underlying reason or the stitches inlay might have caused it to heal as such .

In adult circumcisions when stitches are used, those marks are normal. Pictures of smooth results depict neonatal circumcisions which don't employ stitches.

It’s impossible to answer your question without an examination. See your doctor to have this checked.
