Hey guys!

I just got circumcised on Monday the 12th. My circumcision was a bit different in which I got a scrotoplasty along with the circumcision. This is the "webbed penis" where the webbing of the scrotum was removed since my scrotum attached onto nearly the top of my penis. Just a few concerns I have.

1. How long after the procedure did it take for the sensitivity to be reduced? I can barely walk upright because my glans is still sooo sensitive. I don't know when it will go away but I really hope soon since I am on spring break and will be going back to college next week. Any ideas to keep the sensitive penis from stop moving too much in my pants? I am wearing briefs but I think they might be too tight, would that not help either?

2. The bottom part of my penis is still oozing a mix of yellow/red blood. The initial bandages were taken off day 3 after the circumcision, but my urologist didn't say anything about an infection even though the bandage he took off was all yellow and stuff. I am currently putting a piece of gauze over my penis before wearing underwear, and so far every time I take that gauze off, it is a bit yellow/red so it is still oozing...

3. Swelling!! The right side of my penis is bulging out while the left side looks more normal. I am assuming this will go away soon...

Any help!!

I'm no doctor, but I'd suggest you consult your urologist right away, just to make sure everything is OK. - Jeremy, Medibation.com

I saw my urologist 2 days ago for the 2 day post op appointment, and it looked basically like that. He didn't say anything than so I was assuming everything is fine.

Sensitivity will lessen in about 2 weeks on average, speaking to people in here. That side of things will just have to be waited out. I'm 4 months in and although I can live normally now, I'm still sensitive and have to do everything that little bit more carefully

Sensitivity is a strange one because people tell you different but it took mine two weeks to fade and be able to wear pants comfortably.

You don’t need to see anyone it’s obviously still swollen and will be for a week or two just look out for infections it could be infected go and see your doctor they should prescribe you antibiotics.

People say gauze and Vaseline but I didn’t use anything like that I just left it bare to naturally sort it’s self out and rested with it out in the open air and if I needed to go out the first two weeks I wouldn’t wear any pants 😂

I wish I could do that lol but I am in college still. I have to wear pants almost everyday since I have labs almost every day.I guess I will need to go buy some more sweatpants for a few weeks!

Take two weeks off then and after that you should be ok
