I have posted before. I am attaching a picture of how it looks now.

Friends please let me know what is your impression about

how the healing is going on. It is eleven days after surgery.

Not much pain but some pain is there near the stitches.

peeing normal except it is spraying at start and end.

After seeing other pics I am having a thought whether my surgeon

has removed foreskin more?If so can it cause problem.

While sleeping when I get erection pain is there which subsides when i pee.

Funny part: I love dancing (waltz,tango,salsa,flamenco etc). It is my passion. Today did some dancing alone completely nude. No pain felt really good. Actually

somehow felt greater joy dancing nude. Oh boy!!!

Hi pal! The painful stitches in and around that area is completely normal! I have that currently and will fade once they start going! If they feel super tight get them wet for a few minutes!

Honestly looks great man keep it up

Thanks mate. You are really great. Your words are really giving me great mental boast. I really am grateful to you.

Do you think the doc has removed more foreskin than necessary?

It's hard to say but I personally don't think so, when the swelling dies does hopefully it'll tuck nice and neatly behind the head!

Hi mate I've had a look like you asked, everything looks fine and completely normal there mate honestly, I was in the same position as you pal, worried and wanting answers and now I'm past all that and healed I stay on this site to help people out as much as I can because I know how unbelievably worrying and stressful this healing process is and I wouldn't say it unless it's true but your fine there mate and it is healing well, you'll notice the swelling go down a lot more over the next 2 weeks, as for the foreskin you won't know how much he's removed until the swelling has gone down and you won't know if it's an issue until you get a full erection, but for now your doing fine bro

How long did it take for your stitches to dissolve (if they used those ones on you)? I'm on day 9 and still have those and swelling, aswell as some staples/stitches and this "flush" stuff the GP called it, all on my frenulum. I just want to be healed enough with no pain so I can go running asap!

in reply toGreenBaffoon

Be prepared (and patient) for your soluble stitches to take three to five weeks to drop off.

Only issue with that, is many people in here and outside of this have all said stitches should be in me for 7-10 days. GP expected then to fall out by the 10th day. They havent yet so surely he'd have told me it could be 3-5 weeks??

in reply toGreenBaffoon

It varies by individual and also depends on what sutures are used. Beware of the advice you read on forums like this, be guided by those who’ve had the experience rather than enthusiastic self-proclaimed ‘experts’ who don’t.

Here’s a useful summary...

My stitches are now slowly dissolving. But I see some swelling (like small bumps)where the

stitches were. Are these the scar tissues? Will they go with time or do I need to do something?

Hello friend, I am 16 days post surgery yesterday I had to go out for some urgent work. I

spread neosporin on my glans after cleaning and put a light bandage (put some antiseptic cream on it and also on brief I was wearing inside).

Today I think slight increase in swelling of the glans is there.

Also almost all the stitches are gone. Yesterday when I washing I

noticed some small white stuff on the ridges in the cut where the stitches

were(I am not. Also slight yellow discharge is there on/under the ridges where the stitches were(the stitches has gone only about a day or two). I don't have fever. Is that normal.

You have been great help. Thanks in advance.

Not what you're looking for?
