Swelling after masturbation

[lenon23]

Hello I have a problem I don’t know if it’s bad either not cause I got circumcised about 3 weeks ago now I tried to mastruebate but the stitches were still there and the next morning (today) I see my penis is swollen but it doesent hurt.

Never EVER do that again. Its not healed if it looks like healed. There is skin underneath the one that you see that heals much slower and whenever you pull it all the healed tissues are loosen. Wait for the stitches to fall and then two weeks more. I did the same thing when i got circumcised and I know what it is.

General guide line, not to masturbate 4-6 weeks post circumcision. People, masturbate before ... come to forums all worried ... that they did something they shouldn't have done and now something might be wrong .... sigh.

It’s simple. After the surgery did you put on neosporin 3xs a day until now?

Most likely not. Yeah it’s also probably tender due to recently having the surgery buttt the cream helps so much. Speeds up the healing, and heals the scar a bit faster

Yeah I’ve done it mostly if they tune but not that cream it was an different cream tho

If the stitches held and you had no bleeding, it’s cool. Swelling happens through an action refered to as jelqing. While there’s no evidence of a benefit, those who do it believe it will enlarge their penises. Well, you see what it does, but it’s just temporary, usually going back to normal in a few hours, possibly a day. Vacuum pumping has a similar effect.

Usually this affects only the mucosa, the tissue which was your inner foreskin. The part next to the glans and down to the location of the scar is mucosa. not skin. A common effect of the practice is creation of a donut behind the groove.

To avoid swelling, loosen your grip and use lube to avoid pumping fluid into the area inside the mucosa.
