Hi all. Here I am again. Last week, I forgot to update on the day I hit 10 weeks, so this week I'm back on schedule. Today is 11 weeks healed and it feels mad to think I only had my operation less than 3 months ago - it feels like a lot longer.
So, where am I? Well, I'm feeling really good, all considered. It definitely feels like in the last week or so that my mind and body have turned a corner. I'm not thinking about my fella nearly as much as I was in the first couple of months. Less thought means my body is clearly back on auto pilot, or getting back to auto pilot. For example, when I sit down I no longer feel the need to lower myself gently, I just sit down. When I walk I'm just able to walk normally. I jump in my car just like I used to. Sure, I get the odd twinge and moment of “oooh that rubbed a bit” - especially when I catch my junk on my towel after a shower - but by and large I don't think about my Johnson anywhere near as much as I did at the beginning of all this. I was told this disconnection would happen around the 3-month mark, and right on cue it's happening - I still panic about little things, but far less often. Also, swelling is massively reduced all round, with only my frenulum looking very slightly swollen, but all nice and pink with no bruising anymore.
However… here are the things that are on my mind or noticeable at 11 weeks healed.
Irritated Skin - Well, despite a patch test of coconut oil showing no reaction on my arm, the more I've used it, the more I realise it is irritating my skin (mainly the pink skin right above my scar line and just below my glands). I never worried about being a bit swollen after a handy shandy (it's normal to do so considering the op) but I did wonder why it looked so red. I mean, I got red either all over or in little patches every time I use it to whack off or moisturise, so I finally listened to my body and have stopped using it, and am switching back to only Vaseline for now. Otherwise, I sometimes get sore shaft skin right below the scar line where it rolls up and rubs, but a tiny dab of Savlon and air helps here. These are actually both minor issues I'm not really worried about (although I would have panicked in the early weeks). Salt washes are generally helping my soldier to feel soothed and clear of dry skin flakes. But, I would like to moisturise my chap. So… has anyone got any suggestions for anything to use as a moisturiser on my shaft and glands that isn't coconut oil?!
Loose Scar Line - This has been an interesting development. My scar line is now far more flexible, and moves up and down the shaft a lot more easily - it used to be solid. I know this happens during healing as the wound releases from its healing position, so it's nice to hit that milestone. Everything definitely feels a lot more comfortable as this has happened, like when the stitches fell out. So, all good here. But again, the moisturiser question pops up and I wonder if there's anything else to use to keep the skin from drying out that isn't coconut oil? Any suggestions? Please?!?
Getting Back To Normal - I've kind of touched on this already… but I definitely feel more normal at 11 weeks. Truth be told, I've felt more normal since around week 9, but every day I get more comfortable and things feel less tight or weird feeling. Driving is more comfortable, riding the train to work in London isn't an issue, I don't have to adjust my tally-whacker all the time, walking is normal again, sitting at my desk to work is fine… basically, things that felt odd or that I would do gently are now just back to how I was before the operation - obviously with the new sensations of a skinless wonder cock. Sleeping, most notably, is far easier now and I'm back to snuggling my wife with my crotch pressed up against her ass… which obviously rouses Captian Cocksmith and ends up with me making "om nom nom" noises and trying to tit my wife up. So… all good here. My wife said that as soon as I started trying to grubble about with her knockers like a fiend every chance I got would be the moment she knew I was on the way back to normality. Well... get them out, love, Daddy wants a grubble.
So yeah, my only issues now are rubbing and redness, and trying to find a moisturiser that doesn't irritate my delicate but magnificent new chopper - all suggestions welcome.
Hope these updates continue to help… reading back over my old ones I see how week by week I'm getting better. We all get better.
If anyone wants to chat or ask any questions, comment here or DM me. Cheers for now.
Tom.
