Hi Guys I'm 10 days post circumcision. I have been naked throughout, thinking of trying to wear underwear or boxers, how do I wear them to keep glans supported ?and should I use vaseline and gauze? which is better underwear or boxers?

I have noticed that when I stand or sit upright there is some swelling at the suture line basically a skin swelling, sometimes painful as the skin is pushing against the stitches, any tips on how to dress so you can go to work (specially to avoid sensitivity or pain), my job is mainly a desk job?

Thank you in advance.

Vaseline is your best friend for a few weeks. You can just go straight into wearing underwear that supports the penis or loose whatever you prefer. But at the end of the day I’d say to re bandage yourself up changing it twice a day for a few more days or so. Shower daily and use warm salt water. Once your wounds heal more then give it a go using just underwear. Make sure the swelling reduces more and the lymph escapes. You don’t want it to get nasty In the underwear so I’d say just bandage yourself up until the wounds close up more
