Just wanted to give you all a follow up:
Day four: Last night I had my first full erection. I was getting
worried because in previous days my erection was about an inch less
than what it was pre-circ. It is still swollen and still feels
really uncomfortable having an erection. The incision is now turning
a bit more purple and bruised. The incision was made right below the
glans. Right now, it doesn't look like there will be a base to the
head. Is that normal? I am sure when the swelling goes down,
everything will become more definitive. As I soaked in the bath at night, the invisible bandage came off (with a tiny bit of help).Day Five: By far, the night was the most painful. When erect, I felt a sting all around the incision line. On a scale of 1 to 10, by far a 10. Pain killers didn't even seem to do much. I have also noticed some bruising on the bottom side of the head. Much of the under side of the penis is bruised as well. I am also having a little bit of difficulty urinating. At start and finish, the flow is a wayward but once the stream gets going its fine. I'm concerned that may be a problem. So I've had to piss like a chick.
Thanks for all yor postings. I feel a bit better after reading your experiences.
>Hey everyone... just trying to find some reassurance.
>I was circumcized three days ago on 7/7. They put me under when it was done and injected it with a local.
>Day One: No problems at all. The penis was a bit swollen. No bandages were used but I think a clear, invisble bandage was used because the cut seems protected by something clear. A little blood (very little) appears at the tip of the penis. There is sutures from the hole to under the glans. Does this mean the frenulum was removed?
>Day Two: Sleeping was horrible. I woke up with a few erections and it did hurt a bit. Really uncomfortable and a lot of pulling. I used sinus spray that the Dr. recommended to relieve the erection. It worked. Can barely walk today. Best that I stay off my feet because the penis feels like it has been slammed in a door. Some sharp pain comes and goes as well. Just barely unbearable. Took some pain killers. I tried to wear tight boxer briefs today... nope didn't feel too good. Will go back to regular boxers and flannels. The bath felt so good, best relief.
>Day Three: Ah, much better. I slept with an ice pack on the penis. I didn't get an erection till morning (about 3 of them). They actually didn't hurt though. Penis just felt like I had a lot of sex or a had been erect all night. Sore. Morning was fine as well. Afternoon, the pain hurt came back. Tried on some jeans and I think this was why. Too soon I think. The bath also brought some pain today but I just think it was hurting anyways.
>I also scheduled a DR. appt for next Wednesday to have the DR take a look. Does this all sound normal.
