Hi, it's been 10 days since I had the op, and still worried about the sensitivity of glan , I can only manage wearing tight boxers if I bandage it up with a bit of Vaseline, should I keep doing this or is there a better way to heal quicker and better ?? Thanks

What I did was go in to the shower and use my hands to pour water on to the glans. Over time, raise your hands more so the water hits it harder. After like 2 showers i was able to get the shower stream itself to hit the glans. Wearing tight underwear while wrapping it up helps decrease sensitivity temporarily, I'd say wear some loose boxers with some sweat pants and just try walking around for a day. Also i use this neosporin + pain relief gel and oh my does it help. Also ask your doctor if they can prescribe you anything. I'm taking 3 ibuprofen in the morning and 3 at night and occasionally taking hydrocodone for pain if it gets bad during erections. helps with sleeping too. let me know if you have other questions but i am not a health expert

If it's over-sensitivity that bothers you, just wait ten-twenty years. Over time that sensitivity will inevitably decline, because of all the rubbing against clothing, and from constant exposure to drying air, to the point that you may wish you had never had a circumcision.

Of course, as many men have discovered ... you always have the option of spending years restoring your foreskin: restoringforeskin.org/

If you wanna prevent your glans from drying out, you simply can moisturize it daily. No drying out and no loss of sensitivity!

Yeah, and purchase a bottle of expensive lube, too, because every time you masturbate or have intercourse .... you'll need it. It's another one of the many "benefits" of Male Genital Mutilation, which is the procedure that keeps on giving.

I am circumcised since birth. I have never had a problem with my glans drying out. I am over 60 and am super sensitive. It is not Male Genital Mutilation. It may not be for everyone, but I am so glad that I had it done as a baby. I've never had a problem with it, it is easier to keep clean, smells better, most women like it better, and still feels great for solo play. Stop spreading all of this venom and let people do what they want.

Leave it free to adjust with natural air circulation ,it will be adjusted
