ZSR circumcision staples

Hi all, I underwent ZSR and frenuloplasty 11 days ago. I do not see much difference in the staple ring. Frenulum area still hurts. The swelling under the glands and one side of the penis still persist. I was told the staples will fall off in 7 to 14days. Since I do not see any difference from the day of procedure, I am freaking out. I also have yellow layer of mucus forming under the glands. The doctor told nothing to worry about and it's just a normal healing process. If you have undergone this procedure I would appreciate very much if you can share your experience about one or more Qs below. Thanks.

Did you see any gradual change or did it fall suddenly?

How long does the staples stay in your case?

Dies anyone had to remove with surgeon?

How long should I wait before intervene?

How long did you wait for sex?

Hey Nick, It started to detach around day 17. It came off completely on my day 20. Today I am on day 22 now. I still have inflamed area and frenulum part is still not healed. So I think I am in this group where healing takes longer than average :( It still very uncomfortable during erection but way better than before. Hang on for few more days bro. Hope you feel better soon.

Thanks for the reply.

while taking bath i can see a ring attached below teh head with staplers around it, is it the same zsr procedure you have gone through. So you meant that after 17th day the small staplers have fallen off on it own isnt it ?

I am taking bath daily twice with sea salt water to get rid of any infection. My frenulem is almost healed ans unfortnately I have popped out few staplers on my 5th day at the back and the skin is slightly losse, My doctor said its not an issue when it get healed totally it will get flat .

Please do let me know if it is the same zsr procedure you have gone through and where we can see the ring with staplers attached to it ?

Bro please let me know the ring with staplers are attached at the bottom of the head for you too right ?

I dont know but while taking bath today I was cleaning the area and can see the ring and staplers are just below the head of the penis. Its so tightly fixed / attached to the skin am afraid it needs to be removed by the doctor physically. If i try to strech the skin below the staplers are not allowing me to and it hurts a lot.
