after a year and 8 months of the pain and tightness , i could not roll the skin back for the Doctor . I will be Circumcised this friday. we decided on freezing the area for the operation ,instead of full anesthesia . Has anyone done this with local freezing?

any feedback on post Circumcision care would be appreciated.

I did local anaesthetic- which were quite painful- the initial injections... but the operation I felt nothing- even the pain was only 2/10

Oh wow. Ask the doctors for how many successful operations has he done that freezing method, and what were the pros and cons according to the patients themselves?

I was frozen. The injections were painful. But you feel nothing until it comes round. I had lots of baths in diluted antiseptics. Years on it is great. Worth the pain. I went high and tight.

Is a dorsal slit not possible? This would be the best option vs circ

day 14 update , everything went well .

- no stitches , the doctor used Glue.

i have two questions, i need feedback on.

1) The swelling on the left side of the penis is gone , but the right side still has a bubble swelling just below the head, is this normal

2) as per the doctor , i use vaseline everyday , but is read this some men use neosporin. which has the better benefits for healing.
