[Zane93]

I got curcumsised on Friday its been 3 days, i removed the bundage as instructed and i had no issues of bleeding. However, my penis is swollen, especially around the stitches, i use weak salt solution to wash it 3 times a day. . Nd there havnt been any improvement is this normal? Or I should be worried

Perfectly normal. My swelling started on day 3 and peaked at around day 7 or 8. Swelling is usually well on its way to being gone at around 2 weeks but can be a bit longer until it's fully gone.

Nothing at all to worry about.

I'm 6 months post op now.

Feel free to message me if you want to chat.

Mine been sore for 6 months going on 7 (swelling around the scar line and it's like a balloon underneath where the frenulum used to be). My urologist said I have Lymphedema and he said to give it a year and it will go away spontaneously....

I sure the hell hope so.

Its normal. When i got circumsized my penis was swollen for 2 and a half weeks..

I pray it goes down within a week, it causes a lot of discomfort when wearing clothes to work. Any suggestions on how to wear my clothes without any discomfort? Today i had a soft clean cloth at the base of my underwear.. but was uncomfortable as hell... as theres this stitch on my frenulum

I used to put cotton tissues between my penis and underwear. My penis got used to that so I removed it and then it got used to the pants too. Always wear loose pants. I made the mistake to go to school with very tight ones. Never ever do it.
