Bumps on penis after circumcision

It's been exactly 14 days after my circumcision. Luckily, I have no sensitivity issues. Aside from the drying up of the glans I don't have any problems. I have been removing stitches and they've been coming off with relative ease.

However I have two questions.

There are bumps on my foreskin in the place where my stitches were which look like beads . Is this common? If so, after how much time will they disappear? Although there is no pain, should I get it checked?

Secondly, there has been painless bleeding from my frenulum which comes and goes. Is that normal? Should I have it checked immediately?

All the bumps will go down over a few weeks . In your case maybe 2 - 3 weeks . And yeah there will be small bumps where the stitches were present and even they will go down. I wouldn't worry Abt the bleed if its little . If its more and persistent throughout the day or if you are worried or anything best to get it sorted out with your doc. Cheers !

You might have to wait for some time. They are mostly inflammation and scar tissue that will subside over time =)

just got mine 2 weeks exactly i’m experiencing same thing the bumps that look like beads how long did it take for yours to go away? little nervous myself

It might be worthwhile using something like bio oil or coconut oil on the scar to help reduce and fade it.

Thanks for asking this question I was wondering the same thing. Is it ok to have sex if all stitches are gone but small bumps that look like beads are still present

Idts, I'm waiting for 6 weeks because I just wanna be safe. I think you should wait for sometime too, you don't want one of those bumps oozing blood

My bumps and lumps haven't gone down since my circmucision back in 2017. I think it's scar tissue and traumatised tissue. It goes all around the scar line and is very unaesthetically pleasing. I'm pretty sure you can get them lasered off or have some cosmetic surgery.

Not what you're looking for?
