>You tell them James!
>I was very impressed with your very eloquent statement. The length of it indicates that you had a point to make, and I hope you feel better now you have gotten it off your chest.
>I was even more impressed that your recovery has been so rapid. A good wank after just 14 days, you should be very proud!
>Well, after 41 foreskinned years, my Circ is in 9 days time, and if I heal anywhere near as fast as you have, I will be as happy as a pig in s**t! With your 19 years of wisdom, and first hand experience, why not share your experience better by helping others on this site? Many people like me, are just plain scared, and trying to find out as much as they can. For you, the Circ was clearly a walk in the park, minor scratch. I am genuinely very pleased for you. My experience (a Frenuloplasty last year) and perhaps the experience of so many men like me was supposed to have been the same. It wasn’t. My fear comes on the back of that experience. Many people come onto this forum simply to be informed, and to be told by people like you, who have been through it, that everything is going to be OK.
>Lighten up a little, your experience and knowledge is valuable, sure, there are those who may exaggerate a little, but that’s usually born of fear, or the need to impress. None of that works for me. I just want to know what you did, how you did it, what worked, what didn’t. I want to apply your wisdom to my own experience, whatever it may turn out to be sometime after 0730 on Friday 08th April. I am glad the war is over for you. Now tell us how you fought it please?
>Andy

I had a relatively loose or moderate circ, Andy. Meaning the cut line is a centimeter, maybe two, behind the head. There truly was no war.

The first day was a little rough, obviously, because I had been fighting the spinal anesthetic which took a few hours to clear completely. I cannot complain about pain, there was not any during or after the procedure, honestly. The tylenol that I took was one before going to sleep every night for the first four days, sort of as precautionary measure for myself to gauge erections and whether I'd wake up at night as a result of them. This did not happen.

The only issue that I faced was severe swelling. The majority of it surpassed after the first three days. The swelling was effecting the frenulum and all the way through the upper shaft skin, so understandably I was entirely bloated. The size of frenulum had the appearance of a second glans at the time. Definetely scary stuff. The appearance for the first week was not good. There was no "black and blue" like other people have suggested, but there were signs of blood and sweat resulting from the incision and the swelling.

As the swelling died, it started to blister a little bit and the result was a little bit of scabbing which came off on its own, which has further resulted in a totally refined and perfectly "smooth skin" appearance. There is only a little bit of tenderness/rawness around the fresh incision and only a very little bit of swelling on the underside of the head which will clear in time and otherwise it looks one-hundred percent normal. There is no visible bruising, irritation, blood, or anything of sort.

At the end of the day, this procedure was as easy for me as having a dental filling, only it required a little bit of patience and care management. Apply fresh dressings with polysporin, apply ice during the first few days to ease swelling, shower every two to three days, and everything will be just normal. I cannot point out one bad thing or bad side effect about having this done.

The head may be losing 'touch' sensitivity somewhat, but pleasure still feels the same and has the same effect internally as there always was, only there isn't a bulk of skin in the way. Gliding over the ridge and corona with the stretchable shaft skin is still very effective and comforting.
