Just curious if it looks ok. I keep getting the "liquid" from the wound, it's kinda yellowish and a little bit sticky. I used to have fever every noun then but I don't feel anything right now
i use vaseline on wound daily. Another question, should I pull down the skin further? Or should I let it heal before doing that. Appreciate all answwers, I need motivation.

There is no reason to put vaseline on the wound specifically. You only put the vaseline on your penis head and a gauze when wearing underwear etc to make it more bearable. No need to pull the skin down more, let it heal. As for the liquid it can be normal but it might not be, you saying you had fevers is that worrying part. Having a fever means there is an infection, as your body is raising its temperature to fight the infection, hence the fever. You can try to put Neosporin if available, if not some other antibiotic ointment around the incision area once or twice a day. Other than that your circumcision looks ok to me.
I think it looks pretty good and doesn't look like there is much swelling. I'm about 3+ weeks after being cut and still have a bit of swelling. My doctor removed the stitches at my 2 week followup. I wouldn't recommend pulling back the skin - let it heal. I had a tiny infection and my doctor told me to just gently clean the incision with 50% hydrogen peroxide and water and sparingly apply polysporin / bacitracin antibiotic ointment.
Do not disturb much. Looks ok. Let the wound heal naturally
It looks very good. Leave it alone. Don’t pull on it until after the stitches are out and it has some time to heal on it’s own. You can pull the skin back more after about a month. It will naturally go back a little more after the swelling goes down anyway.
How long is it been now? I’d like to see some after pictures I am concerned about scarring as I’ve had the same circumcision in the same area as you. But my scars are bumpy and raised in it’s been almost 3 months
