Thanks for the helpful reply. I am glad (happy) to hear it should be fine in a few days. I found a clever system to go to sleep (involving the back bars from a chair.. don't ask :), so its a big plus.

About the underwear, the nurse told me to wear loose underwear, or none at all.. so contradicting statements here. I actually bought tight ones this morning since with the bandages tight was the way to go.

Baths twice a day is what she told me as well, I assume its for the blood you're talking about.

My other concern with all of this are erections. I woke up alot last night with the start of one, and i am scared to death of having a full one. With those stitches pulling it will likely hurt so bad i'll cry. Is there anything you can do to prevent those during the night? I am trying not to get any during the day, but you know the male body is very weird sometimes, so you never know.

Are those sprays safe for the wound? I don't know if putting chemicals on a newly cut skin is such a good idea. :)

thanks!


>>AT ALL, not even with vaseline... it hurts like hell. I called the clinic again about this and she just said to let it air
>>out and after a day or two it should be bearable.
>Vaseline will just delay the adaptation to its new environment. If you let it dry, you will find it much more tolerant of contact.
>Meanwhile, you could try local topica anesthetic such as benzocaibne. Some of the sunburn sprays such as Solarcaine have some of the in there and it will hgelp numb your glans to some extent.
>Wear tight fitting underwear (as oppose dto loose). It will reduce friction.
>You can also wrap your took in toilet paper or kleenex. Again, this will protect the head while keeping it dry. But note that you will need to take bath or shower to remove it during first few days due to blood oozing from scar and solidifying inside the tissue.

>>I doubt anyone has a magical solution but... help me? :(
>Within a few days, you will find that your glans will have maracoulously begun to adapt. Expect also to see lost of "smegma", as the skin on surace of glans shed at accelerated rate during adaptation period. If your glans has never seen the light before, it is a rude awakening which woudl normally opccur gradually during childhood..
