Day 5 after circumcision, is this infected?

[ManOfLetters]

Hi, I've had it looking like this for a few days now, had a GP consultation and he sent antibiotics 3 days ago but nothing seems to have changed, I've also noticed I'm urinating a lot more, any advice/helpfulness please?

Hi, I think it looks a little bit better. don't be afraid to have a gentle wash with salted water. And make sure to finish your antibiotics and perhaps consult with your doctor again when you have finished them.

Yes that's infected. Go get hebiclense or something with chlorhexidine in it to clean it.....put...after washing it well.,a little Neosporin and grab a tube of vasatracin with a q tip put a little of both on it 3-4times a day and at bedtime...let air get to it as much as you can .....

Hello Brother, whether its infected or not, can be best assessed by a Doctor. But looking at the picture it seems quite normal. My penis looked the same till day 8. I would suggest to complete your dose of medication, take normal baths with soap and shampoo and keep that area as clean as possible. My penis healed completely by the end of 16 days.

Yes, that is infected. Take your antibiotics as directed by your doctor & finish the course. Consult with your doctor if you have noticed no changes in appearance.
