Post op circumcision advice

[Daniel121]

I was circumcised 8 days ago I’m concerned as 1 stitch has burst due to morning erection. Is this a cause for concern or should I not worry. Anyone that this has happened to or had done recently is love to chat with as I have a few questions. I’m in the U.K. and speaking with doctors is a nightmare just now. So someone with experience that’s had this done and could answer some questions I would be really great full.

There is nothing to cab do about a lost stitch at your stage in healing. The wound will still heal but may take slightly longer.

So I don’t need to be worried about the stitch coming out? I was worried it would cause issues or infections. It’s a tad yellow where the stitch was but from speaking to a guy that had the same on day 10 it appears normal?

[Hidden in reply to Daniel121]

Just continue to keep the area clean and you should be fine. Any doubts with contact your surgeon or your doctor.

Thank you. Relieved to hear that it’s nothing to worry about.

A broken stitch, or one that comes out early is nothing to worry about as the would will still continue to heal.
