Hi everyone,
I have my operation tomorrow morning, obviously I’m nervous but at the same time I just want to get this over with as I have had phimosis my whole life.
Just wanted to be sure that I am expecting the correct things, if anything I say seems incorrect please correct me or just let me know how your experience was.
What I should expect:
Day of surgery, roughly 30 min procedure (I have been told I will be under general anaesthetic), probably in and out of the hospital in 1 hour to 1 hour 30 mins. Slight pain and sensitivity and most likely swollen but still a bit numb from the surgery. So walking isn’t too much of an issue after the surgery.
1-2 days after surgery, very painful erections (mostly at night) very sensitive, however wearing tight boxers with vassaline and gauze wrapped around the head with help.
2-4 days after surgery, bathing the penis in warm salt water in the bath will ease the pain and clean it. Once or twice a day?
5-7 days after surgery, everything seems to be on the mend, still pain from erections bit not as bad, moving around is fairly easy now with the use of tight boxers. Most likely able to go back to school and work etc.
8-10 days after surgery, area by furelium is still sore however the rest of the wound is healing well.
11-14 days after surgery, some of the stitches may dissolve / fall out.
15-17 days after surgery, stitches should be out for the most part, pain should be minimal, the penis will still look very sore but won’t hurt as much?
18-21 days after surgery, stitches should all be out, swelling should have gone down dramatically and the furellium will still be sore and healing however progress has been made?
21-30 days after surgery, pain will be not as noticeable, head most likely desensitised a fair bit, living is more comfortable?
30-40 days after surgery, should be able to go back to having sex and masturbating?
60+ days after surgery, scaring shouldn’t be as noticeable, swelling will have gone down to a very minimal amount, life is more comfortable, feeling better in general?
Like I said before, I based this timeline off all of the Circumsision posts that I have read over the last few months, if anyone thinks that what I have to expect after tomorrow is inaccurate please can you correct me?
