Bumps reduction . Cream ?

Hello everyone,

I had a circumcision surgery 2.5 months ago. The healing process went well, without any pain or issues. However, I have noticed some small bumps (from stiches prob) and a bit of swelling. Can anyone recommend a cream to help reduce the bumps and keep the area dry? Would Bepanthol be suitable for this?

Thanks!

Hey there. I used Vaseline right up to 2.5 months, then stopped using anything, even on bumps. I had a few of them around the same place to the left of my frenulum all swollen and a bit sensitive to the touch, just leaving them alone has worked wonders. I found any creams and oils just irritated the hell out of my glands, so I just decided to pack it all in. I would keep an eye and if it gets worse to go see your doc.

Hey, I had a few bumps till a few months after my circumcision last October too. I was concerned about them, just like you are, but trust me - leaving them as-is does wonders. I can hardly see any now. Happy recovery!

Yes it's good to use cream while you're healing, but then leave it alone. The bumps will go in their own time.

Not what you're looking for?
