Constant urination day 9 circumcision

[Fallen13]

Is anyone having the issue to urinate a lot or feel like it after circumcision.im on day 9 and its annoying to keep urinating. Hope I don't have meatal stenosis !anyone else have this issue after circumcision?am scared aswell

I think meatal stenosis is not very common on adult circumcision. Do you have a scab near the urethra? There can be just swelling on penis, cause this is just your 9th day post-op.

No scab near the urethra its pretty clean there.i do have some swelling tho. Only scabs on incision line.

Probably not meatal stenosis then. You can contact your healthcare provider if that issue continue when the swelling is gone.

Ok generally how long does swelling last and by swelling do u mean on at the head or the penis as a whole. What do u think the complications could be? Could it be stress anxiety or some medical issue.i don't want any other surgery or complications to scared to think about it.

Pressure by swelling on urethra shouldn't normally last more than 2-3 weeks post-op. Swelling can be under the incision site or glans, you know it better. I do not count swelling as a complication yet. It's quite normal after any surgical operation. Sure every operation won't irritate urethra.

UTI can be exclude with an urine test.

Ok ill try to test for UTI also ill give it a week to see if my problem doesn't get better as u said swelling last about 2 to 3 weeks and I'm only on day 9.

Check with your doctor about your prostate. If it is enlarged, then the sensation to urinate can increase.

Well it kinda stopped today.plus I think prostate issues are with age .I'm kinda young only 22.

I had the same issue then I changed my bandage and was better!

[Bwhite0777]

Did your bandage get wet?

[Fallen13 in reply to Bwhite0777]

Yes it got wet. Tbh I never realized. I just got better over the past few days.

[Bwhite0777 in reply to Fallen13]

Same I covered mine and took a shower but I guess it got wet. I had to pee a million times and I thought something was wrong. I kept trying to keep it dry but never realized till like day 6 it was wet and my underwear was wet. So I asked my doctor if I should change it. He recommended to leave it but if I felt I needed to, to change it. After that it was so much better. Where did you go for your surgery?

Hi guys - I'm old (72) and have had constant urination problems for 20+ years. So dont worry if you're young; you probably just have a water infection. (but chat with your doctor for peace of mind. I go (urinate) often and little (more pussycat than racehorse) I know prostate problems are very common at my age and I have been checked 2+ years ago. I was advised then that I have an enlarged prostate. I'm 24 days post-circumcision-op (all's well in that regard) as I've had no issues, no sores, scabs or pain, and the last of my stiches disappeared yesterday. I'm simply going through the checks for prostate again via my doctor to be on the safe-side as we're always told that stuff is always more easily treated if discovered early enough. Good luck and dont worry. 👍
