MY CIRCUMCISION

Tony_26 profile image
25 Replies

Hi everyone! I am 26 years old and I just had my circumcision 10 days ago. I stopped putting on bandage yesterday because I can no longer feel any pain. But now it seems like it’s a bit sore again especially when it rubs against my pubic hair and my morning erections hurt like the stitches are gonna open. I just want to know if that’s okay.

About the scabbing, is it normal that it doesn’t look like an ordinary wound scab? It looks like it has some other dried fluids aside from blood.

Did you choose to have it for cosmetic reason mate ? Or was it tight or that ?

Part of culture and hygiene. 90% of men in our country are circumcised

Hi it sounds like it's ok hard to tell without photo anyway. If you have to go out I'd bandage it up but if your just at home I'd leave it uncovered I'd also trim the pubic hair the may have some lymphatic fluid especially around the frenulum this will take the longest to heal for the morning Wood bending knees up forward should help.

Hello! Thank you so much! Yes, my concern is actually at the frenulum, to be exact. It is also where my morning wood hurts now. It’s where the swelling is. The rest of the stitches are okay. I position my penis towards me when I sleep so the under part will dry up.

That's no problem man glad to help out! The frenulum is always the slowest to heal it can swell up a lot especially if you had a high cut. It should soon start to dry up keep it clean you could use a little salted water in a small bowl to wash if you want. you could bandage it at night if it's still weeping to protect everything.

Yes it’s a high cut. Too bad pictures are not allowed. I just woke up to my morning wood. It’s weird that it doesn’t hurt that much. Unlike yesterday. Another funny thing, a stitch popped out and hardened. Now it looks like my wound has a thorn and my underwear keeps getting caught in it. LOL 😂

HAHAHAH I can really feel this one. Also, when the stitches came off, it looks really ugly but the doctor said it is just normal. He said, it will look better when it's healed. I guess we should just wait for it then? 😂 By the way I got my circ 14 days ago

That's fine Man high cut is also good it might take the swelling a little longer to go down. It's good the morning Wood is not as painful it's healing then. The stitches are a pain if they come loose you can pull them off the one that's sticking out you can trim it off with a scissors. Time is all you need once the stitches are gone it will heal up faster so just keep it clean and be patient.

mate did you not consider having the frenulum removed ?

Tony_26 profile image
Tony_26 in reply to versa2508

Either way it’s fine but my doctor said I might not like it removed

It’s gonna suck but we’ll worth it

Well, you will FEEL a lot in the coming year or 10! But as your head becomes more and more desensitized from the exposure- that will lessen proportionally. I would highly advise to keep your glan emolliated and protected or it will desensitize more and more from the air, rubbing on cloth etc. Skin thickens to protect and that process on your glan in the years to come can desensitize your nerves that are left. Just look at your palms, elbow, knees, anywhere your skin gets exposed, and it needs to protect itself. You want to keep as much sensitivity as you can thru the coming years, you'll need to keep it protected and emolliated like your 4skin was designed to do.

It cost me to find this forum, but it's a blessing I did. I started to feel as desperate as most in the forum. I'm on my 10th day. . Everything was fine until day 5th... As it was going soo good I decided to use the white gauze alone... Once I removed it later that day... My friend was all beat up. Some stiches pop up here and there. Know has some discharge from the back (frenulum). The side from the stiches that open doesn't look aline... And has a tiny part of skin that doesn't seem to be attached.

I am now on my 4th week post op and I can say what you are experiencing right now is normal. It’s funny that I was also worried as you especially on my 2nd week and now I’m saying it’s normal…trust me. It’s part of healing.

The discharge you see on the frenulum is called lymphatic fluid that fight infection. About the stitches that don’t look aligned, that was a result of your erections. You’ll be fine as long as you keep it clean and keep in touch with your doctor when something bothers you.

All the swelling, bleeding and discharge will continue until your 3rd week. It was my 3rd week last sept 15. My scabs and stitches have already fallen off and I finally started masturbating again.

Wish I could share some photos. I'm on my 10th day, pain is almost gone but the swelling is making me crazy. Should I put vaseline to avoid the wound sticking to my undies? I stopped using gauze on day 5. My wee wee looks messed up haha.
