Hi there,

I am now 3 weeks post circumcision which I know is still very early. However, I have noticed a lump on my shaft which is hard.

Is this normal? Will it go down over the coming weeks?

Many thanks 😊

Most post-op problems will disappear over time. If you are at all worried, get in touch with your doctor or surgeon.

Thanks I have just spoken to the doctor who advised it was likely to be stitches under the skin which take longer to dissolve.

I was advised to take regular 20 mins baths to help

I was told by the surgeon that it is most likely where the veins were sealed under the foreskin and the stitches are still there. Will take time to dissolve
