I just had mine done 15 days ago and to be honest not much to worry about the thought of it is worse and the surgery is fairly fast you’ll be out before you know it if everything goes okay. Feel free to message me before or after op

Hello, I’m 15 and I really am struggling to find the diagnoses of what I have, without going to a doctor. This is an extremely awkward topic for me to talk to my parents or anyone but I seem to be having issues with my penis. About a year ago I had a small circumsition and I am still left with most of my foreskin, but ever since I have started to notice this small bit of skin connecting my penille glands to my foreskin. I am able to retract my foreskin all of the way past the glands but there is a build up of skin behind the edge of my them. When I get an erection I start to feel this tugging sensation, it doesn’t hurt but it bothers me. I feel very anxious about my penis and I am worried whether this will affect having sex in the future. If anyone could help me in this situation, like advice, diagnoses or even give me a sense that I’m not the only 15 year old that has had this, it would be much appreciated.

Go to the doc might be foreskin adhesion or just smegma.

I find that gauze, Vaseline, and tissues help. Also tight fitting undies. Recovery can take from 2 weeks to 6 months. Most bleeding should clear up in 2 weeks. Frenulum in 3 weeks. Swelling months after.

Also don't jack off till at least 4 weeks, unless you want to shoot blood like me from my frennie

If you've never pulled back your foreskin and have a sensitive glans then I recommend an aerosol can of local anaesthetic which is sold as delay spray on amazon and ebay

Unfortunately not everyone has a choice. I had to be circumcised while they were also checking for cancer due to the symptoms I was having.

Hey it all depends on where you are having the surgery and if local or general is being used i am 55 i had mine at a VA Hosp .. it went Without any pain only minor discomfort and it healed without any infections .. the doctor gave me 10 oxycodone pills 5 mg .. the first few days it was mostly numb and when you pee it stings alittle but will improve after few days also on top of stiches he put a glue strip over which came off during showers after 3-4 Days ...

The best advice is to cancel it. Unless you have cancer, there’s no necessity for doing it.

I just got cut last Tuesday on June 19th in America. Eat plenty of orange and green vegetables, protein, and drink plenty of water for efficient and sufficient healing purposes.

Depending on the cut style, pressure points of the stitching, and your body's emergency response, your immediate swelling within 4 hours-till the next day can look any and all sorts of a way. Its the inner foreskin that will be be stitched to your shadt's outer skin that will be puffed with lymphic fluids. Gosh; it will be tender and swoll, mine's is the exact same as it was 6 days ago. I go for my post-op doctor's appointment in the morning. I will ask him how long it will take for the swelling do go away. Lol

I've used ice packs over the past 3 days, warm compresses of epsom salt water, and taken Aleve anti-inflammatory pills and none of that has significantly reduced any swelling. Then, a hardened tender area just under your stitched area along your shaft will rise within 2 days and be the most painful part. I think it either comes from the cut nerves being inflammed or from when the surgeon makes his circularcision around the shaft to cut the 1-inch inner foreskin to use for attaching the outer skin. The stitches are a 3rd pain to deal with poking your meat all day.

4th, your urethral pee hole will swell and cause your urine to spray in diversified ways starting on the 2nd or 3rd day.

Or also, listen to your qualified Doctor, not some random called Bucky85 on the internet.

Indeed!

Really? And risking amputation of his penis because of cancer? Wow, Bucky, you are such a wise man!
