12th day today. Stitches still intact. Sensitive still too much. Naked whole day at one room taking multivitamins and apply ointments. Suffered from phimosis.
The one pic with no ointment is the pic of very next day of circumcision and the rest with ointments are the current healing images. 2 stitches are about to fall yet they are attached deep so that kinda hurts. Painfull it has been. expecting improvement till the end of this week. Anyone can view on it and give some advices is it healing or i am in some deep. Trouble?

Hey man I’m in the same boat as you; got my circumcision done at the beginning of the month and I’m on day 15. Not to alarm you but you may have gotten an infection or something or it may just be the phimosis but I highly suggest you contact your doctor and they should have scheduled a follow up to see how your doing at your 2nd week.
For future reference: You need to make sure you keep it clean and dry. Clean it gently with unscented baby wipes and dry it with a dry clean towel then wrap it with sterile gauze (soaks up any fluids and is gentle on the penis) and wrap that with self adhering bandages firmly but not so tight where it hurts. You can get the things i mentioned at cvs, Walgreens, etc. Last thing is make sure you get enough sleep; our bodies heal faster during our sleep due to it needing to do other things while we’re awake.
It would be more helpful. If you want advice, to only post a current link. Too many pics only gets people confused. We do not need to see multiple pics. Take care.
Sorry just giving my best advice never said it was infected like I said it may be normal but I’m also comparing how mine is going. I personally don’t have any drainage like that; the second pic looks fine but the other two are the only ones I would ask about; also it could just be like that due to the type of stitches they gave you; mine will dissolve on their own without the need to be removed.
