ZSR circumcision- Help Needed, Urgent

9 Replies

I had ZSR on 22nd. 6 stitches have been removed. I had a high cut. Some part of the silicon ring went under the remaining foreskin and it is swollen now. I cannot pull it back to see the ring from this area. I can see the staples and ring on frenulum side but front side ring is under the swollen foreskin. Any suggestions? Anybody went through the same?

Your silicone ring should have fallen off by now.. if your wound if fully healed try using a sterilised nail clipper to cut the staples... dont use a scissors

The ring under the swollen part is intact. It has detached from other parts. 2 more staples came out today morning. Will cut them in the evening. The problem is that from front part I can not pull back enough to expose ring. Can I DM you a photo to check if there is any infection or a cause of concern?

Maybe cut off the part that is free and wait for the swelling to go down. Try putting ice in a bag and hold it onto the swelling for a few minutes at a time. How much swelling do you still have?

I have cut the extra 2 stitches as well. but swelling on some part is this much that from that part I can't pull the skin back enough to see the ring. area covering maybe 3-4 stitches.

I don’t know how much swelling you have but I would think that if the swelling is covering the staples then they may not be ready to come out. If in doubt you should see your doctor.

Visiting Tuesday. Just hoping this doesn't turn out something very serious.

I wouldn’t worry to much. It sounds like it’s normal.
