infected ?

im already 3 weeks in after circumcision, and i see part of my wounds there are yellow scabs there, im wondering is it infected?

Scabs are usually a sign of the healing process. If you are worried, however, see your doctor.

Because it has been 3 weeks i thought scabs shouldve gone away the first 2 weeks

Depends on healing rate and people are different.

My scabs are going strong. 2 weeks now. They started off yellow from lymph drainage. They are black now. Doc said no infection

[Gojo121 in reply to Dhhdjxhhd]

Ah I see, the scabs did get darker in color overtime. I guess it alright since I’ll be checking in with doctor within a week and hope no infection.

Yes, If infected it would also have redness, swelling, pain, and possible pus drainage
