Hi,

I was circumcised in August and I'm now 15 days in, I can finally see a light at the end of the tunnel!!

The first few days were horrible but now much better, not much pain, more twinges than anything, I can't wait for this to heal properly!!

I've been bathing it twice a day in warm sea salt water for about 3mins a time and I think I'm ready to not wear bandages anymore but still a little scared!!

I am a little concerned about the bumps and by the frenulum.

Is this normal? Also I have notice a few stitches have already come out, is that right?

Any help would be greatfully appreciated

Thanks in advance

Hi, for 15 days it looks clean then mine and also glans/head doesn't look much bruised at all. I have a question, didn't you have ring type swelling around stitches rounding corona?? Cuz I almost don't see swelling though stitches are still present. I got circumcised on 14th August. Mine's still having swelling.

No don't think I had a ring type swelling, not that I can remember.

I do stay most of my days half naked, just to let the air to it.

Amazing, no swelling for stitches 😕 was it dorsal slit technique?

From what i rememeber, there was some swelling but went down. Wish id takena pic then!!

Now you're asking!! Lol I haven't got a clue.

The sergion just said standard circumcision to me, I then told him to remove the frenulum as well, as didn't want that causing problems in the future.

That's really great doc work. Are your stitches poking out? Mine are poking out on right side of glans like 2-3, I don't wear innerwear just towel type big cloth. So walking makes lot of discomfort since stitches touch balls and give pain.

My stitches are poking out but they are soft, so don't cause any discomfort unless I get an erection!!! Can't wait to get hard without pain!! Lol

How are you getting on?

How's yours look compared to mine?

You can check my posts for images, yours is like an example for perfect circumcision. I don't know about others but for me things reversed, while there was guage with tape I had no pain but doc removed it after 8 days and told no further dressing required. From 2nd day without guage stitches have become instant nightmare, my body just becomes steady once I feel that pain in order to tolerate it. I am not sure what's the cause exactly, is it that whitish frenulum which can be doubted to infection or its stitches colliding with balls due to pendulum moment while I try to walk. This is my experience and I wish it's not same for everyone. Sometimes pain make me regret that I would simply choose to remain virgin forever and no marriage then to ruin my normal routine activities. Every movement I carefully do fearing I might hurt myself. Sorry I don't intend to scare you but this my experiences is killing me.

God, yours sounds a proper nightmare.

My gauge came off the same day as the op, in the evening. It started to bleed which scared my and with it being a Friday night, I had no one to call until Tuesday due to the bank holiday. So I bandaged it up and hoped for the best in the morning and all was fine.

I just can't wait for it to heal fully and being able to use it. Just need to be patient!!

Looks like it's healed

Does it, thank God!!

Such a worrying time!!

GP did say this was one the best cuts he'd seen in a while.

Just been on your page, yours looks like a good job.

If you don't mind, I had a few questions.

How long was it until the stitches came out?

How is sex now? Is there much difference? Better or worse?

How long till the head desensitized, as I've tried wearing briefs but feels uncomfortable!!

Thanks in advance
