How does circumcision affect size

I was circumcised as a baby and had a revision when I was My glans penis definitely increased in size. We had our sons circumcised as babies and they both have big glans penises. K, so its just the skin outside of the head, so thats the only thing that may look smaller. At first i was about 1. During the survery bloodvessels are cauterized so it takes a while for the bloodflow to go back to normal. Hey i just posted a question about this im 3wks post op and looks bigger when flaccid but a bit shorter when erect so good to read these to put my mind at ease.

Johnny chill lad your dicks fine let healing take time they only cut skin off not your knob and if tightness preventing length erect I was same skin will stretch over few months with sex and wanks as well as boners so chill and wait it will be 10 inch again lol. Good to hear Me too.. Got circumsized a week ago and I feel the same thing.

It's like my cock is being restricted from going free.. Im 4 weeks out and its about 2 inches different maybe scary shit but mine got infected and had to have 2 courses of antibotics so my surgeon said I would be 2 weeks behind usual.

Total shitfest of a time waiting for it to return. Hey man - how you feeling? Any difference? I went through the same thing.

It feels like my penis shaft is inside my body. And I lost weight this year. Makes no sense. Feels still prob an inch shy to me ive been about 6 weeks now but had complications with infection the scar feels abit tight and I hope it will return to normal.

Had the same infection. It was like a heat rash Doc said it essentially set me back a month. Really frustrating. I told my surg that its a large change from soft to hard and hes done it so theres skin available but still it does feel abit restricted.

Time will tell I get a review in Feb. This no sex thing is really not cool its made me pretty restless and grumpy! How exactly did you know it was infected?

There is a lot of brown scabbing and crust all over and a little redness on the bottom. It was yellow and smelt like rotting flesh but it wasnt me who decided Im not a doctor. I saw my GP and he gave me antibotics as it was his opinion it was infected. It didnt improve much so I had my specialist who did the surgery look at it, who took swabs and I was put on specific antibotics based off the swab results. Its your dick man if you think its infected at all, definitely worth getting a medical professional to check it.

May it whatsoever type or style of cut bro, as far as based on my research before my surgery I get to know circumcision do not affect the size of our sexual tool. However, you might feel so as you still in the healing process and yet do not really reach the maximum level of your erection point. I felt the same after my circumcision for cosmetic reason, but once after its healing, my penis gets into the size before the cut.

Ah yeah bro , I had mine done 9 days ago now and mines like yours all swollen does anybody have any tips to reduce swelling and to make the stiches fall quicker how long does it usually take for the stiches to fall and if so does this reduce swelling? I am concerned! I had circumcision done and now my penis is against my body.

What is going on? If its at least like the one in the photo I would feel better but now I dont have the size Im used to. Its now 4 days after the circumcision and it hurts when I go hard.

I can hardly walk with a hard on. Should I be concerned? Hey, i was wondering that did you go through laser circumcision or surgery? And how about now, has the size now come to normal? Hi johnny I know exactly where your coming from. It's been 2 weeks for me and I feel I lost at least half the length but thickness has increased. Maybe cause of swelling. Someone please advise. Same here, it's been about 2 weeks and I feel like Iost some size, don't know if it "reexpands" after couple of months as the some veins get cauterized.

Hoping it comes back sooner rather than later. Guy the size of your penis will return back to normal. The swelling and stitches really hold your penis tightly together preventing the penis to reach it's full size After 2 months you'll be at full throttle. On the photo it looks like yr doctor did a nice job!

The following are indications that a circumcision revision may be required. Richly woven into the society, the practice dates back to at least the 17th century Choosing a healthcare provider is an extremely personal decision.

The healthcare professional should know what is best for you when it comes to health and the With any procedure, it is important to know what complications are possible. Proper education and preparation before a procedure are important to minimize the possibility of a poor outcome. It also helps patients and their families make informed The stitches usually disappear within two to three weeks. Your doctor may use the dorsal slit technique if you are suffering from phimosis or paraphimosis.

The dorsal slit procedure removes a specific amount of foreskin with scissors; then the doctor will perform the remainder of the circumcision at a later time. Next in the procedure, we stitch back together the part of the foreskin that has been cut using or absorbable sutures. We keep any excessive bleeding under control with direct pressure and electrocautery. Your doctor may apply petroleum jelly to your incision and wrap the stitched area in sterile gauze to keep it protected for the first 24 hours.

For patients suffering from acute paraphimosis, your doctor may try to decrease the swelling with their hands before proceeding with surgery. They may apply a gentle, steady pressure on the foreskin to decrease the swelling. The doctor will then use his or her fingers to push on the head of the penis and pull on the foreskin in an effort to further reduce the paraphimosis. Most studies do not show that circumcision causes sensation in your penis to worsen or sexual pleasure to decrease after circumcision.

Also, circumcision does not shorten the penis. If you have scarring from a previous circumcision, we can also repair it successfully.

However, as with any surgery, you can experience some unwanted side effects and risks after your circumcision. These may include:. This procedure is a variation of a circumcision that doctors try first on patients with a tight frenulum the tissue between the head of the penis and the underside of the penis. This can cause pain or bending during an erection. If this is the case, your doctor may perform a frenuloplasty to change length of the frenulum of the penis and ease the restriction.

The procedure can be done under a local anesthetic or general anesthetic, whichever you prefer. Your doctor will start by dividing the skin with a horizontal incision near the top of the frenulum. The cut will be re-stitched lengthwise to elongate the frenulum and alleviate the pain.

We will use dissolvable stitches to close up the incision, which usually disappear within two to three weeks. Each patient may experience different things after their surgery. The important thing to remember is that the side effects below are either temporary or uncommon:.
