How To Heal Circumcision Wound?

Hi. I had circumcision about 3 weeks ago. I had infection few days after op but this was treated with antibiotics, fluids etc. I feel ok now. Working etc. BUT, I noticed that where fennulum was skin is rather raw and I m not sure wether this should be attached to rest of penis and heal or this will simply grow skin and heal? I can t pull skin down in this place. It s at the other side of penis. Everything below is a bit swallen, like a ring. Stitches from that area gone. I m just hoping stitches did not dissolve too quickly because of infection and because of that skin did not heal properly.

Hello,

Your symptoms seem to be related to an infection of the wound.

I suggest cleaning the area properly.

I also recommend using an antibiotic cream for local application.

In case of pain, you may use Tylenol.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
