Resuming smoking or vaping during recovery, before your incision sites have healed, puts you at risk of poor healing, infection, and other dangerous complications.

The ring falls off within 5-7 days, as compared to 10-14 days in adults. Get examined with surgeon who did it. He will guide you then.

Asked for male, 39 years old from Kanpur

I am sukhpal singh. My age is 39. It's been 5 days since my classic circumcision. But the swelling is there and my penis has become thick and stitches are hurting. I have been taking zerodol sp, zifi o 200, pan d and applying neosporin ointment. Should I continue to take zerodol sp even after five days. How to get relief from pain? When can I start bathing?

After circumcision there will be swelling for few days. Which subsided with time. You can continue zerodol sp for few more days. You can take chymoral forte tablet three times a day before meal for 5 days. Swelling will decrease. You should visit the operating surgeon once to rule out any infection, hematoma.

Hello lybrate-user, I think there is nothing to worry about this. Just check your blood sugar level. If it is normal, then nothing to worry. This will go away of its own.

Health Query

I am 20 years old and got circumcised a little more than 2 weeks ago. It is healing well and currently does not hurt at all when I get an erection. I am wondering if it is ok to masturbate now? I can have a full erection with no pain but I am worried if the head pulses afterwards it may disrupt healing.

It is important that you do not have sex or masturbate for 6 weeks until the wound is completely healed.

Asked for male, 25 years old from Gaya

I've gone zsr circumcision 12 days ago. Everything is normal, wounds are perfectly healed, but the penis gland sensitivity is not going away. What can I do to make the sensitivity go away?

General Physician•Sri Ganganagar

Actually, glans is very sensitive part. Before circumcision it was covered with skin so you could not feel any sensation. Now as it is exposed it has become hypersensitive. With in few days you will adapt to this and you will be ok. This is just normal.

Health Query

I want my foreskin of penis to move down. But I don't want to go for circumcision. Previously it used to go down easily but after a cut on the tip of penis a year back, it is not going down. I left it to heal for long time due to fear and now the hole became small. Please help with some medical advice apart from circumcision. Please urgently. Thanks in advance.
