7 weeks post circumcision (update)

[sikskse]

My first post was an update of 4 weeks where you can see a picture attached. It still looks very similar but all the stitches are gone now which I am pleased about.

Sensitivity is reducing bit by bit every day but still not where i hoped it would be at this stage. However, i’ve read that it can take months up until that point. The whole process wasn’t as bad as i thought because i’m very used to it now and pleased by how it looks ext.

Just a few questions if anyone would please help. I have a girlfriend who knows everything and is very supportive(she is a virgin) and we’re open about the situation and we’re both ready to have sex. The only issue i’m finding is i think i will experience pain as i’m finding a blowjob quite painful. It’s one of those like it dosent really hurt just hurts that much so i can’t focus or feel much pleasure and we have to stop. Obviously sex will not be any better at this point and it’s quite frustrating. it could be the scar line as there is still minor swelling so i’m going to start using bio-oil as i’ve heard that helps. I could potentially try using a condom instead for both instances as that could help but i realistically need proper advice. Would anyone else know what to do in my situation?

Sometimes it might look like it's fully healed. But the scar line area need a few months heal up. Maybe you can try once weekly till you are comfortable, before sex ? Rather den you ignore the pain and the wound open up. Not worth it

The Scar line can be tender and painful at first. Go easy and don’t get too frustrated. In several months time it should be resolved. Try massaging the scar line with some coconut oil, boo oil, emu oil etc. Those are safe non irritating options. Do this a several times a day for a few minutes for the next several weeks and see if it helps.

Do you experience tightness of the scarline around your penis?

Glad I found someone with a downward bend like mine
