Circumcision Scar

[HelpOut1]

I’m having hyper sensitivity at the incision scar

Any one know how long it takes for this feeing to stop

Depending on on how long it is since your operation there is a couple of things you can try.If the wound isn't totally closed apply a little Vaseline it will protect and stop rubbing or sticking to underwear

If closed rub in some E45 cream or Bio oil which will help reduce tightness and improve scar tissue

Ok haven’t tried E45 will give that a go

Thanks

It worked for me. Hope it helps

Scar will settle within 4-6 months post-op normally, but the outcome will develop for next 12-18 months.

It's gradual but in my experience about 3 months. For a lot of guys this remains the most sensitive area as the head becomes accustomed to being exposed

In addition to what alex suggested, applying some sort of cream or ointment helps. Personally, I used Vit E oil for healing and vit A oil to accelerate keratinization. The latter sounds strange but somewhat worked for me for sensitivity.
