Hey everyone, I have a question about my circumcision recovery and I’d really appreciate some advice or reassurance.

I’m currently on day 7 after a stapler circumcision. Before surgery, I was told I had a short frenulum, and the surgeon told me that the circumcision would also fix that issue.

However, now that I’m healing, I’m a bit worried because the frenulum area still looks kind of stretched/tight to me. I’m probably overthinking it, but I wanted to ask:

Should I already be concerned about my frenulum? Does this look like it could become a problem later during erections or sex, or is this normal at this stage of healing?

Also, does my healing process sound normal for day 7? I still have a lot of glans sensitivity and nighttime erections are pretty uncomfortable. Is it okay to continue covering it with gauze for protection, or should I start leaving it uncovered more often?

Thank you so much in advance — this whole process has honestly made me pretty anxious.

Hi everyone, this is my first time posting here. After 23 years of knowing something wasn’t quite right with my penis, I finally decided to get circumcised 3 days ago using the stapler method.

I would really appreciate any advice on how to heal properly and as fast as possible. I still have some blood, and after 3 days I went back to have the bandage removed. The doctor told me to only apply a cream he recommended and use gauze, but I’d like to hear more recommendations from people who have gone through this.

How should I clean it properly? Especially after peeing or showering? How many times a day should I clean it, and what products are safe to use?

Also, the sensitivity has been really intense. When it’s covered with gauze, the friction doesn’t bother me as much. Should I keep it covered most of the time until it heals? I don’t want to complicate the healing process, but I also don’t want the hypersensitivity to last longer than necessary.

I’d really appreciate any tips for having a smooth recovery and making sure it heals well. Thank you!

Help guys pleaseeee!
