>>Not really painful mind you, but still not exactly pleasant when it just brushes against underwear (i.e. not during the day but when I pull it out to urinate)....you can just feel that it's a bit tender. I thought maybe it is inflammed or something. Is this normal? I see my doctor in a couple of weeks again so hopefully it'll go away before then.
>It sounds normal to me. I know in my case it took somewhere between four and six weeks to settle down. Obviously the period of time will vary for everyone, but you probably should see some more improvement on the discomfort side of things.
>Good luck.its exactly 5 weeks today since my circ. i agree that it is normal though i don't really feel the same discomfort now. i did probably around the 3 - 4 week. maybe you should just place your penis pointing upwards in your underwear - easier to retrieve it for urinating until the discomfor subsides. Guess its just some adaptation time that your member needs.
