Circumcision last night

**EDIT** so the bandage has fallen off by itself, it’s not even been 24 hours, do i need to put another bandage on again, or am i able to leave it off?

so i had my circumcision last night, all went fine, i went to sleep and woke up with the bandage a lot higher above the glands after the night erections, and the stitches are showing as well as the incision, i read that i shouldn’t get the area wet for over 48 hours, but i think i need to re-bandage.

Hey Man if your at home and can go around naked you can leave it. if you have to wear clothes or go out then bandage again none adhering ones are best. no you can't let it get wet for 3 days and only a shower then no Bath. you can use some baby wipes to freshen up yourself I found them very handy.

my bandage came off within a few hours… never replaced it & I never put Vaseline or anything else on the glans….personally I’d just let the air get to it….after a couple of days bathe it in salt water… all will be good 😃👍

give it the 48 hour mark & you’ll be fine to have a shower…just let the water run over your penis & pat it dry gently with a towel….I used to put some Luke warm water in the wash basin & a couple of teaspoons of salt in & bathe my penis for a couple of minutes two or three times a day, that will promote the healing process & the salt will help stop any infection….if you wanted to you could also try the process in the kitchen sink, but your other family members might have a different opinion on that one 😂😂😃👍
