Swelling after 2m

Hello everyone!

It's been two and a half months since I had my circumcision and I notice that there is still some swelling in the left/frenulum area.

I know it "passes with time" but 2 months I think it's enough, no? 😅

I've masturbated a few times and I've had some fun with my partner but there's been no penetration yet because I'm afraid the swelling will get worse.

Any tips to decrease the swelling a little bit faster? Any tips that I can practice on a daily basis would be ideal.

Thank you all in advance

I afraid not,it takes a year for everything to heal fully,for some guys the swelling goes reasonably quickly,for some they still have it for up to a year and some who are unlucky can take up to 18 months for everything to settle down(a very small minority).I got done 6 months ago and my swelling is about half gone and my doctor said it’s on track to take another 6 months or so…yours will go down in its own time,it’s just patience now I’m afraid.You can try massaging coconut or bio oil into it to try and drain some of the fluid off quicker I guess,it might help a bit,if you’re going to have sex then I’d recommend a condom and lots of lube(and be cautious and take it easy😂),it’ll keep everything tight and in place and prevent as much irritation as possible😊

Yeah,no problem,after6 weeks the incision wound is healed enough, it might still be a bit sensitive but masturbation is fine

Thanks man!! Is it possible to mess things up? I’m scared to just masturbate too much (once a week) and ruin something. Break the frenulum or even got something inside damaged.

Hey brother I am on a similar timeline I can confirm the same a little bit of swelling is still persistent right below the frenulum and I understand it will take some time to settle down.

Have masturbated few times first time was like forever :D but later got used to it and kinda feels nice.

No sensitivity issues any more everything is normal.

Not what you're looking for?
