Circumcision 11 days post op

[AbhayY]

Hi guys , some of the sutures have fallen some by themselves some while cleaning!! Ans some are left , no wound dehiscence , no bleeding from 4-5 days!! Only swelling and sensitivity and itching are the things to be worried now!! And how can i understand when my glans upper surface is getting rough and becoming like the skin of my penis ( as i can see) but still sensitivity present !!

Lots of anxiety and ofcourse tension ! May someone advise what is the progress going on!!

In erections there is no pain and the erections- though not complete but no pain while erecting and stitches can be seen properly wherever present

Doctor says it is healing well

Said to clean it with warm water

When wrapping around gauze then can wear anything but without gauze not possible

I study in college so I can’t walk in a weird posture so will use gauze but in the process worry that i might not be able to expose glans to that level so as to normalise the sensitivity , so any idea or any guesses or any advice? Thanks in advance

I highly recommend the adult mens pads available in most good pharmacies. Usually used for incontinence but I’m 22 days in and still wearing one daily as it gives some protection and also catches any leakages from the wound.

Don’t worry, I found the first two weeks the hardest but as you approach three weeks you’ll really start to see and feel a difference. I still have some sutures in but the swelling is well down and the wounds recovering. Everyone’s recovery is different so don’t rush it.
