Hey guys, so I got circumcised 3 days ago, and I'm going in to work tomorrow... My glans are still extremely sensitive, any tips on what to do for tomorrow when I go to work?

I’d have taken more time off to be honest. Sensitivity is off the scale for the first 10 days or so and I couldn’t find anything to help.

I was advised wrapping the penis up well and wearing good supporting underwear but in truth the only thing that helped me for the first 2 weeks was hanging free and just wearing a dressing gown,

Good luck tomorrow!

Thanks, I actually ended up not going to work that day, and then my doctor booked me off until Friday:)

The amount of sensitivity you have will vary from guy to guy. It is also related to and ore-circumcision issues. You might be lucky. What type of work do you do? Heavy lifting is not advised.

I'm doing retail at the moment

That should be OK but try to keep away from heavy lifting. Take care.

I got my Zsr yesterday. I applied a cotton swab with a gauze swab layer around that keeps it protected.

Keep your glans covered for work and restrain the penis pointing upwards in close-fitting briefs. Don't let it swing about in boxers!

Overall, the excessive sensitivity of your glans will only reduce once it has got used to contact with clothing etc - so if possible, keep it exposed when at home.

I got circumcised 3 weeks ago, but till now, I can't wear any clothes... Maybe it's because I had phimosis

Same with me, but I think that the sensitivity is slowly fading(hardly), like it's still extremely sensitive right now but when I walk around with tight under, with my penis faced upwards, you kinda get used to it... Or that's for me at least. I got circumcised 7 days ago

It's almost 4 weeks and still, I can't wear any underwear or any other clothes... But the sensitivity is slowly fading... I hope I will be able to wear clothes after a few days...

You'll be fine I was circumcised on Sept 8th and was back to work on the 11th just no lifting and minimize walking

Yeah I understand, but I had phimosis, so my glans are still extremely sensitive
