Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose:1. I've had a circumcision for seven days, and it still hurts! Has anyone else had this done? When can it be completely healed to have sex again!!
2. I only realized many issues after the procedure. I could fully retract it before, but after an erection, the foreskin had rolled back too far, causing some pain. Then, during insertion, it hurt badly (especially at the corona). I thought it must be phimosis. When I went to the hospital, the doctor also said it was phimosis and recommended a circumcision. But now I've found another issue—tight frenulum. I think it's more likely the tight frenulum causing the problem, but it's already done. I'm wondering if I'll need another frenulum surgery in the future if it doesn't improve.
Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to your description: It has been 7 days since your circumcision surgery, and your penis is still very painful. This is considered a normal phenomenon. Generally, postoperative recovery takes about 7-15 days. During this period, the pain may be related to friction from the sutures or poor local healing. It is recommended to observe the healing condition of the incision when changing the dressing. As everyone knows, phimosis and paraphimosis can cause significant harm to men, so it is important to seek treatment as soon as possible. In daily life, pay attention to dietary issues, and maintain a light diet, avoiding irritating foods. Additionally, regular follow-up visits may be necessary if needed.
