I'm back up at my local A&E almost exactly 7 days since I was last here on the eve of my operation. I've had heavy bleeding, heavy swelling and now I fear some night time erections have popped some stiches. Has anyone had this happen?
Better safe than sorry but this experience hasn't been a good one so far unfortunately - just as I thought I was getting better.

After 4 hours of waiting I'm told I have a blood clot/haematoma and the stiches on one side have popped open. Back in the waiting room now but looks like further surgery to remove the clot and stitch back up - fucking nightmare!
I'm getting discharged from the Emergency Ward now. The registrar just fucking squeezed the blood clot out with his fingers, injected my penis with anaesthetic then stitched it up in front of me - another horrible experience.
No infection though and hopefully now back on track - I really do hope this is all worth it in the end. Not that I had an option but to get circumcised but dear me, what an ordeal in just seven days.
Feck Man I hope it will improve for you now. you have been through a lot in the last week. did they give you any antibiotics in case of infection. It will be worth it in the end you didn't have much of an option.
Same here mine popped when I was around day 11 or 10 I just kept pulling them off them erections was the worst but I heard laying on your side would help
Sorry to hear you’ve had these problems. I hope it sorts itself out now.
