Underwent A Preputioplasty On My Penis. Swollen And Painful Penis. Any Danger?

Hi, Over a month ago I underwent a preputioplasty on my penis so that I could retract my foreskin. It is still tight though and hours ago I was in the bath stretching the foreskin. One of the veins in the foreskin has swelled significantly and gone blue/almost black in colour. It is painless but quite prominent. Not sure whether to see anyone or will the clot go away? Thank you

Good day!

Usually blood clots in the preputial area of the penis is self-limiting and will be absorbed by the body in 1 to 2 weeks. You may observe blood clot and consult a urologist if you feel it is growing in size. Like i said most of the time it will go away on it's own.

I hope I have succeeded in providing the information you were looking for. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications at: http://www.HealthcareMagic.com/doctors/dr-manuel-c-see-iv/66014 I would gladly help you. Best wishes.
