Hey, could not see the picture, but by my experience my frenulum was also swollen and sensitive for a few weeks.I'm on week 8 now, and, though it decreased, it is still a little swollen.
Healing takes time, but in case of doubt, give a call to your doctor, they can answer you with certainty
Again I'm not a health specialist so can only say about my experience. Mild redness and bruises are to be expected after this surgery. But if it hurts or if it smells foul and yellowish discharge, it's best to go see your doctor.I went to see mine once due to discoloration of the glan (it was turning yellow-white), but according to him it was just the liquid that transit through your body that was getting "stuck" and should go away on it's own. After few days it was gone.
Okay! I would post a picture to see but I don’t know how on here haha but it’s not bad it, nor does it hurt. It actually has rarely hurt this whole time. Only time is if I get a random hard on, or I sleep on it funny. Besides that no pain.
Hi, the frenulum is always the slowest to heal and swelling can last for weeks and some for months. If it's sore or red looking with discharge I'd have it checked with your doctor. But it does take time to heal up. Continue having some salted water washes.
Hi, it's only been 6 days so it will be a little sore looking especially around the scar you probably have some bruising and swelling as well. it shouldn't really be that painful but if it gets inflamed or a discharge starts then I'd have it checked with your doctor. The first week or two is probably the worst once it starts to heal it should improve quickly.
Yeah. It hasn’t really been that bad pain wise at all tbh next to no pain. Just on the right side it is swollen just a little but it is red along the one side on the line of the stitches. How do you post pictures on here so I can get someone to see?
That's good man sounds like you are healing well. I had little to no pain as well. Some guys have a lot of swelling and it can last a long time. You probably had a low and tight cut there is usually less swelling then. I'd wash the penis with a little salted water in a small bowl twice a day it will help keep infection away.I'm afraid you can't post photos here anymore.
Oh okay no worries! Yes the stitches are starting to come out. I will try that salt water for sure! I’ve had no pain and only little swelling on the right but I think it’s because I have a bigger vein on that side. I’m only 18 so maybe I’m healing better then the other men that might be older haha
After a few weeks it should look a lot better. the vains could cause some swelling alright hopefully the night time erections are not to painful try and avoid them if you can be careful with the stitches.
Yeah the night time erections keep happening but I try not to let them get too bad and they haven’t to where it’s really painful, but they do happen often but I can’t really control it lol. Do you know when you can get back to any sexual activity? They said 4-6 weeks so could you at the 4 week point?
It hard to stop them 😁 we all heal differently so it's hard to say when you can get back to activity. I could have after 4 weeks but I healed quickly. probably closer to 6 weeks would be more realistic but you could try masterbating sooner if your careful 😉
Well definitely for sex you need to wait until your are fully healed! For masterbating it can be done sooner but very carefully with just your fingers on the glans staying away from the scar.You will have redness around the wound for a long time you will probably have a difference in colour between the inner foreskin and shaft skin I still have a difference.
