Circumcision Worry

[Nkuli563]

Hi guys. I'm on day 4 and my skin is not healing...some places it's peeling off and I'm getting yellow coating which is attached to the penis skin. I'm afraid please help guys...And I'm getting pains, I even removed two stitches that cause pain now

It's way too early to talk about skin healing. What kind of instructions your doctor gave you?

Do you spread some ointment or petroleum jelly (Vaseline(R)) on penis? Cover? Talk with your local healthcare professional.

S2BC is right. Also the stitches should dissolve. If they don't dissolve they should fall off. Make sure you are using the ointment they prescribed to you. O don't recall the yellow glaze unless it's the iodine. Mine was full of dry blood which came off on its own or when I was able to wash/rinse it.
