It has been three weeks since I was circumsized and everything is healing well and the stitches have all come out. but one thing troubles me, the skin has now attatched itself to the shaft of my penis, is this normal? I can’t move my skin up and down it is attached to my shaft.

Yes the skin has been attached to the shaft. There is no skin now that will cover your glans or that you can really move up and down over the glans. The skin gets stitched and attached to the shaft so yeah that is how a circumcision is done.

You have been circumcised tightly. The appearance will continue to improve as it heals. You will most likely never again have any loose skin to slide back and forth. You will probably need to use lubricant if you masturbate. (at least for a while)

Hmm, the "pink" skin and "tan" skin should fuse together. However it is not supposed to fuse to the inside tissue. This part should still be mobile.

You do appear to be cut extra tightly. It will take time for skin to stretch it self for limited gliding motion while masturbation.

Not what you're looking for?
