Hi guys...It’s been 8 weeks since my Circumcision and I still have stitches left to dissolve....

Sensitivity is improved a lot , but due to some Stitches poking out and swelling i am unable to wear underwear and resume my work...

As soon as I wear underwear or tight trouser, it push the stitches that has wore out and it hurts a lot....how long it will take more for stitches to completely dissolve and swelling to start coming down ?? Now I am getting very impatient!!!

Pls suggest

Hi bud! I’m almost at week 4 and have half of the stitches left.

I have an appointment with my doctor in about a week and a half for a follow up.

I’d say it’s better to talk to him? Maybe the stitches have done their purpose and he could remove them :)

I already did bro...he said he will remove after 12 weeks if there are any left after 12 weeks....but it’s too long...don’t know why it is taking so long to dissolve ..

I know all of us heal differently and at different rates... but if it’s bothering you too much maybe you can insist with your doctor that it’s really bothering you so maybe he could consider taking them off sooner :)

Post 3 weeks now, most stitches have gone, just frelum stitches remain. Some individuals just take longer to heal, if stitches are sticking out, you could cut them back, that advice was given to me by surgeon.

I would just cut them myself, or have someone do it. The stitches aren't needed anymore, and are hugely irritating, in my opinion. Your dick will feel so much better once they're gone.
