Edema after circumcision

Hi everyone,am female and this feels like am intruding but I also have a similar issue. Husband got circumcised 2.5 months ago and he got some complications like severe bleeding. Now he has recovered with just a small wound left.

The penis is still very swollen though and way shorter. Tried sex but couldn't go longer coz both of us were in pain.

What can be done for the swelling? Is it normal at that stage? How much longer are we going to wait?

You should consult urologist/surgeon immediately. Don't waste your time asking on different platforms.

Hi Kalyango.

Firstly you're certainly not in any way intruding - not in my opinion at least. It's very good that you feel able to share your concern for your husband.

I would second Dk_zsr_circumcision's reply and suggest your husband consults his GP or ideally the surgeon who performed his procedure as soon as possible.

Not wishing to be overly personal, but personally I'd avoid any sexual activity until you've been given the 'all clear' by the surgeon.

With all good wishes,

SetteeSofa :)

You're more than welcome, although I rather doubt I was of any great help.

Take care of yourselves, and my very best wishes for a speedy recovery from what must be a somewhat difficult time for you both.

At 2.5 months he should be well into recovery. maybe consult Doc ?

If you try Sex again, next time use plenty of lube, if you didn't already.

Good luck

Go back to urologist! He should not still be swollen after 2.5months but we all heal differently. Also no sex until fully healed! And also I've seen many comments saying guys get shorter after circumcised. But that has not been my experience and also don't understand this. Is the loss of length from the foreskin that hangs over the head? But if their is pain during erections or sex then it's def too soon!

Not what you're looking for?
