Hi everyone,
It has been 10 full days since I had my surgery done. I'm so glad that things have gotten better as compared to the initial few days.
I just have one concern now, the skin around the swolling ring ( below glands, but above incision line) is quite itchy. I have been applying mupirocin which is an antibiotic ointment to the ring since the first day to prevent infections.
Could anyone please let me know if I ought to be concerned? No more bleeding from the wound. Just the itch.
Itching is the best thing to a wound: it means it is healing well. You don’t have anything to worry about. It’s usually how it is when you’re healing from within. I’m glad your recovery is going well. Hang in there..
thanks TOON!!!!
By the way, how am I supposed to clean my penis from now? I have been showering in warm water and using saline solution to spray over the wound for the past few days. Should I be using soap from now on?
Hey.. yes you should try to wash your penis with soap in the shower... it’s still very sensitive for me but it’s better to be uncomfortable for 2 minutes and not have an infection later..
