Just wondering if there's anyone out there with a buried penis who has had a circumcision?

I'm 36 and my penis is buried when flacid due to being overweight. I had a circumcision 6 days ago due to bad phimosis and wordered if anyone would share their journey with me?

I was circumcised at birth many years ago. And now that I'm older I have a buried penis too, due to overweight. My urologist hasn't offered any solutions.

How old are you if you don't mind me asking?

I've just seen your post from 3 months ago. Looks exactly like mine when stood up.

Im currently 20 stone and have los th 4 stone over the past 18 months.

However, the fat pad never seems to shrink which pisses me off.

Most of my worries at the minute are that healing will be more of an issue with it being buried most of the time.

I had circumcision due to very tight foreskin. Most of the time I could not retracting it at all which kept resulting in penile thrush which is more common as I'm also type 2 diabetic.

My frenulum is rubbing on the edge of my fat pad since the opp and is sore (where my penis keeps trying to poke it's head out into the open world).

I've always been overweight and am desperately trying to lose some.

Nice chatting to someone with similar issue. Happy to chat more on here if you like.

67. I did lose 25 pounds since I noticed my buried penis. The loss of weight was something I knew I had to do anyway. I noticed the buried penis about 4 years ago(it must have been going on awhile) but didn't know what was going on till I realized it was pulling the hair in and it hurt.

My urologist said the foreskin which is a bit too long and the weight caused it. But he didn't have any simple solution.

Hi I am in the same boat as you and had my circumcision done 6 weeks ago. The wound on the bellend still hasn't healed even though the stitches have fallen out. Also still very painful to have an erection and the pain is in the shaft rather than the head or scar area.

Ok. Sounds like you've popped a stitch. Shouldn't be a problem as it should still healing but if you're worried get the doctor to check it to put your mind at rest.

I'm mid 40's. 'ish ;-). Circumcision due to phimosis.

I was circumcised last week, the op went better than I'd expected and I was so relieved. Bandage came off and that's went my penis decided to hibernate! It's never been huge flacid but was never buried. Sure I'm overweight and that has made it appear smaller but following the op there's very little sticking out, just the tip sticking straight out,

I've had no pain whatever since op last week but worked that it won't heal properly as the head is just buried inside. I can push it out a little but it doesn't stay.

Only slight pain was when I woke up with an erection first couple of mornings but I think that's settled at least a little. I was just relieved I got an erection at all tbh.

I got dressed and went into my office for the first time today. Really worried about hyper sensitivity but it doesn't stick out far enough to touch even tight underwear :-(

I need to get back into other work which is physical but I'm worried I'll be catching and rubbing it all day long which would be awful. All I can think to do is wear a cricketers cup for protection :-(

I'm really worried even if I lose weight (which I really shouldn't do) they'll still be nothing showing outside so I'll always be weary of it and don't start me on sex concerns.

I'm gutted about the whole thing and genuinely feel like this could be a life changer. I wish I'd stayed as I was, foreskin was tight and tore when pulled back but I could handle that. Doc said I had no choice and it would only get worse.

Good to see other similar posts, I'm sorry to hear about your issues and wondered how you've been getting on these past few months?

I've had mine done just over 2 months ago and mine is now buried. Will this fix on its on or will u have to have surgery. I'm really worried as when I walk around it hurts and I'm also over weight. I wished I never had it done now and just suffered with really tight force skin and thrush. Could someone give me answers as it driving me crazy. 🙄
