>I was told not to take the bandage off until I take a shower tomorrow morning and I know it is going to drive me crazy! One reason because of the night erection made me sweat and I'd love to take a shower. The other reason being that I feel funny not changing the gause and cleaning it! But I have to be patient since "doctor knows best". :-)
>Now a question for you guys... Once I take the bandage off how should I clean it?I used Witch Hazel to remove some white stuff that is lymph that oozed out. during the shower I encased my penis in a Ziplock bag, others have used a condom.
>Should I dress it again or let it breathe?It will heal faster if you let it breathe. However, since your glans had not seen the light of day untill now, you may wish to wrap it with a gause pad. It will also keep the stitches from catching on your underware.
>What should I put on it to prevent complications?Just live as normal life as you can and keep the circumcision clean.
My comments are from my own experience getting an adult circumcision. Your experience may be a bit different. Enjoy your new configuration. As you heal experiment to find the new ways to pleasure.
