Circumcision skin forming

Looking for advice from anyone who may have had a circumcision, the skin on the shaft has binding with the glans area as expected on the sides, however on the top (facing upwards) the skin can be looked underneath if slightly pulled back and not look joined to below the glans and I’m not sure if this is normal or if the stitches may be further down and I have to pull the skin to see. Hard to explain and wondered if anyone has experience of what it should form like.

I just had mine done 2 weeks ago and having the same problem you described I feel like a ring but I'm scared to pull back. I feel it might open something.

Mine was 3 weeks ago now and the sides and bottom are fine but the top is still open like I’m not sure if it’s supposed to be and is stitches further down or what really, still leak a bit of fluid from where my infection was as well want to clean it but not sure what’s a natural amount to pull back but I was seen by a urologist during my infection recovery and she didn’t say anything was out of place so I imagine it’s just part of healing

Okay so I’m not sure how this helps but she told me the white part was from a mix of my past infection clearing out and from sweat when it gets hot and creates a healing environment for it, she also told me that it’s normal for the top to be open for a while until the stitches show (mine are dissolving) and that it will heal a while on, she prescribed me an antibiotic ointment to leave in the area just as a precaution and she was also showing how it’s fine to pull the skin back by pushing the head of the penis forwards to clean more effectively, hope this helps

I visited my urologist today and he said not to worry about white discharge as it is the part of healing process and prescribed me tablets for swelling heal quickly. He said just be patient.

Hey, so I got like some foreskin left on the back of my pp. And it has like a hole in it that I can see through. So it looks kind of like a ring. It doesn't hurt, and I've had it for 6 years now. But Im not sure if that's the same as yours. Do I just wait or is it normal?

I’m not entirely sure what you mean by it but if it causes no pain or no issues with anything I don’t see it being a problem, but if you’re unsure contact a doctor or an online professional, it’s nothing they won’t have heard before
