It is almost 72h from my circumcision, I had BXO and this was what my doc recommended. I had my first bandage for 48h, after that my doc changed it. He said that there was some blood in there, but I had 5 erections / night, so that should be normal. Today was the day I needed to change my dressing, because I peed the last one(don't know how to pee so I don't wet the dressing).
It looked HORRIBLE! It is very swollen near the stitches, and at the base of my frenulum(the doc made it longer). Especially there(frenulum) it looks like I have small baloons filled with something. Under the glans, the skin is very soft and squishy, so that must be swollen too.
When I looked at it, the skin that was above the sutures was covering about half, if not more of the glans. I put my penis in salt water and pulled gently on it, until I could see my glans. but it's like 1CM between my sutures and the base of my glans, if not even more.
1)Is it normal? (the swelling especially, it is very very swollen, even more in the frenulum area)
2)A stitch from the frenulum(a string from it) is sitting right now on my glans, and making me uncomfortable. Should I try moving it?
3)How should I bandage it? (if that's the term) Or dressing, I searched everywhere and I couldn't find pictures or a video. How the area between my stitches is very swollen, it is quite painful when putting the dressing.
4)What should I do to keep the skin under the glans? It just keeps going up.
To be honest, I do regret the surgery as of now. My penis looks terrible, it hurts, I cannot pee regularly(because I need to change my dressing), overall I cannot do nothing. My doc appointment is in 2 days, please help me!
