Hey guys I was circumcised 2 weeks ago at the age of 27 and I can see the swelling ring a lot of guys are talking about my question is once The incision has healed and stitches are gone can I have sex even if that ring Of swelling remains.

Thanks I’m advance.

Don’t touch it for at least another 4 weeks,it takes 6 weeks minimum for the incision site to heal,after 2 weeks it’s only the outer layer that’s healed,the majority of the incision is still un healed .If you have sex or masturbate before that you’ll cause damage and give yourself a longer recovery time with added problems.After 6 weeks,if you want to have sex you can,most guys still have the swelling due to fluid retention.so the doctors advise that you try sex with a condom to stop aggravating the swelling.The main thing is…most definitely don’t play around with it at all for another month,then see how it goes.

Did your doctor tell you can have sex?

Most doctors that are experienced in adult circumcision will tell you to wait at least 7-8 weeks before indulging in penetrative sex.

I think it’s a good idea to also avoid masturbation for about 5 weeks as you should avoid any unnecessary movement, pulling, and yanking on the shaft as it will cause stress to the incision scar as it’s still healing.

Not what you're looking for?
