Almost 6 months post - BXO

Hi team,

I’m 6 months post op and everything is going well! All the stuff I was nervous about has passed and not caused any issues! The white skin is still there though does not flare up after sex like it used to. Pleasuring myself is all good just a little bit different. Anyone looking to start on the journey or in early days, it does get better! So much better :-).

Good on you mate! How was the sex? I presume heaps different? What week were you able to do it without pain?

Yea was a whole new experience for the better! It was about 7 weeks and a day or so after I had the last stitches come out.

If the white patches do not go away, I would see a dermatologist.

Yea planning to. The urologist said it may have a touch of white that we won’t get sorted. Cheers.

Excellent. Glad to hear this.

Yeah. With me also, I reached some kind of settling point where I just keep watch and see if it flares up in the future. If it does flare up and becomes aggressive, then my uro surg says I might need to go in for surg. I have seen a derm also per the sugg of the folks here - thanks! And for now, I am just at the stage where I keep watch.

Where exactly are the white patches? On your shaft or Glans?

On the glans towards the tip.

Yea it has. Will be a bit different for other people though it will get better for most if not all :-) there are a couple things that make it swell a little, like the treadmill and loose underpants.

It varies depending on the person. There are people whose swelling last much longer than you. Trust me. The main thing is that you are on your way to good health.

Hey man, I’ve got the same thing, it’s early days for you and once the swelling comes down it’ll get better at least it did for me. When is cold it comes forward onto the glans but most of the time it sits off or just up to them now.

You’re doing the right thing by talking to the doc. 2 months is not that long and things have taken a while to settle for me too. I was thinking the same way as you man, wondered if I would need a revision but over time it’s got soo much better. Keep up with talking to the doc and give it time my friend.
