Circumcision Bleeding after 3 weeks?

The stitches on the left side of the incision havent desolved yet and are tender to the touch. They also look tight. I woke up today from an erection like everday, but this time there was blood. Not dripping but oozing. I havent had any bleeding issues until now. is this concerning that its happening for the first time so late in(24 days)?

If the bleeding worries you then it might be best to see a doctor to have your wound checked. Normally it would be healed by now but perhaps yours is just a little slow.

Why not try putting a dressing on again for 12 to 24 hours, if it’s just oozing a bit maybe you just knocked a scab off. The elasticated bandages that you roll on without adhesive and the non stick wound gauze was what I used and you can set them up so you can still urinate.

I’m on day 15 and I just started to bleed but it is more of an ooze and the blood is darker in color compared to the bleeding from days 1-3. How are you now? Any suggestions?
