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 moved all the way back, causing some pain. Then, during insertion, it hurt badly (especially at the corona). I thought it must be due to phimosis. When I went to the hospital, the doctor also said it was phimosis and recommended a circumcision. But now I've discovered another issue: tight frenulum. I think I should have been experiencing tight frenulum symptoms more, but it's already done. I'm not sure if I'll need another frenulum surgery in the future if it's still tight.
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 incision healing when changing the dressing.
