So today is exactly 4 weeks since the circumcision. Does this look right at this stage? All the stitches are out but there are stabbing pains now and then...... Anyone else experienced that?

What's the website for Urology Associates of Nashville? I think I need frenuloplasty as well but can't seem to find their website or contact info.

That is perfectly normal, erections will hurt but your penis does need to get used to the feeling of erections as this is when the penis will be it's largest and stretch out the stitches most.

However, as erections need to slowly get used to, at first try to drink less fluids during the evening, before 7ish, so you'll have less erections during your sleep, keep your penis close to your skin with tight boxers as this movement can stimulate your already sensitive penis and make your penis erect more.

When the erections hurt less, stop the above procedures and embrace the pain you receive from the erections until it is something you are used to.

The swollen look is normal bro, don't worry about that.

Did your penis look much smaller and thicker when erect?And erections were uncomfortable.And also felt like a layer of skin was under the incision(more like if you feel your skin directly below the skin,it feels as if there is another layer of skin),I have so many questions man.Im three weeks into the circumcision.Please help.

Hi Doggo, don't sweat it so much man. Im in week 4......i can say it does get better. It's gonna take time to get used to it. Just hang in there. It's been a tough ride but we are through the worst parts. For me the first 2 weeks were horrible. I regretted it. But looking forward to new beginnings. Swelling will go and erections become more manageable. Post pics of your progress man.
