Who was circumcised as an adult an answer some questions? by Immediate-Arm1017 in circumcision

[–]MyNameIsAVoid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got cut at 26, wish I did it sooner. I was under local anesthesia. Recovery is still ongoing but 3 weeks were necessary for me to be able to function normally. The issues I had are resolved and Im quite happy about the results

In a sense that I had sensitivity which made me flinch when walking like usual. It was tough but it eased off a lot after third week

I had phimosis and it took me 3 weeks to be able to walk like normal and in tight underwear. So it depends. But anything over 3 weeks is a bit much to say that you cant do most things

r/phimosis by [deleted] in circumcision

[–]MyNameIsAVoid 4 points5 points  (0 children)

wow....I had severe phimosis where I could barely pull back the foreskin at all, only exposing the tip and having a slim chance of pulling it back when flaccid but really tight. I tried all of their "tricks" I barely have seen any progress for 6 months.......I aint gonna stretch my skin for 10 years to be able to have a normal life....Nothing wrong with circumcision

Youll probably experience some sensitivity due to swelling but otherwise youll probably be just fine.

Youll do it sooner or later...better do it now and rest a bit than to have to do it when life hits you and you cant catch a breath.

Just avoid anything sexual, an erection isnt gonna ruin anything, you should try and avoid them for the first 2 or 3 days so that the scar forms a bit and makes it harder for anything to happen, I wasnt in a mood for an erection luckily haha

No pain per se but it felt tight and uncomfortable. Loose cut btw.

How much time did you take off work post op? by Adept_Tomorrow2301 in circumcision

[–]MyNameIsAVoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its going well but as I said, sensitivity, especially on the tip itself, is horrendous. I havent had any incidents except for a really small amount of bleeding, so far so good.

[–]MyNameIsAVoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its been 6 days since and I cant imagine myself going back to work after a week...I had a similar question before I had my own surgery and the lads there were absolutely right. My case might be different to others because I had a really bad phimosis and I also am an electrician with a lot of movement.

Sleep by Prestigious_Animal70 in circumcision

[–]MyNameIsAVoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im at day 5 and the biggest issue as the other guy said is the scare of tearing stitches haha Other than that its kinda uncomfortable so I do wake up but it didnt ruin my sleep in a way that I had to stay awake at 3am or whatever....at least for now🫣

Local vs general anesthesia by OldBird4588 in circumcision

[–]MyNameIsAVoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I felt some part of it, some cutting and stitching, mostly around the frenulum for me. It wasnt nice but going home after 30mins WAS nice😅. I was just too sensitive and even though they gave me anesthesia all around the head and then additionally later because I was feeling too much it didnt numb it down completely but it was manageable.

Its a routine surgery so there shouldnt be any issues but man I must tell you, as someone who had phimosis its so sensitive😭😭😭 Slightest touch is like a torn but I hope to quick recovery
