6 weeks after circumcision

[Nonameatall]

I'm 27. I was able to pull the foreskin all the way back when it's normal but when erect, I can pull it just past the glands, the foreskin becomes so tight, it couldn't go further back or come normal. I've been circumsed, it's 6th week now. To be honest, I'm not satisfied with it. There is lot of swelling separated by stitches marks (looks like bubbles). My doctor says it will heal by time, be patient, give it some time but I'm really worried. Any suggestions??

Was your frenulum removed as part of your circumcision? If not, there is the reason for being unable to fully retract your foreskin - you are suffering from frenulum breve!

Give your circumcision another 2 -4 weeks to finish healing.

Thanks for the response.Unfortunately I understood the issue after circumcision. I did ask my doctor the same, he said no need to remove frenulum when going for circumcision(in my case) however, I feel my frenulum is still tight after circumcision. I'll wait for another couple of weeks or more to see how it goes.

The frenulum is often times the real problem/issue when guys need to get circumcised and not the entire foreskin. I don’t understand why they don’t automatically clip it out when circumcising some patients so there’s no room for lingering tightness/pain etc

Hi dude... So my doc suggested that removing frenulum will reduce pleasure while sex and that's the reason mine is not removed. That's the reason I got just circumcised (without removing frenulum). To some extent it worked, my masturbation time increased... hoping my sex time too. I'll update it soon.

P.S: my scars and bumps still exits, further suggestions welcome

I’m on week 9 and I still have a lot of puffy, lumpy skin between the head and my scar line. I don’t have any insight other than 6 weeks isn’t as long as it seems. I still have some pain/sensitivity, too.

I have the same bubble like stitch marks! Did yours go away? If so, when??
