Circumcision Recovery :: Swollen Ring Under Glans
Nov 18, 2015
I had a circumcision 2 months ago because I was diagnosed with Phimosis and I had pain during sex.My stitches are gone, my wounds are closed and the pain is gone, but, there is a swollen ring under my glans with no signs of progress.Its the same for the past 2 months.I asked my doctor and he said that its normal and it takes some time to heal but I know thats not true...most people were good by 1 month max, and my swollen ring under the glands has no signs of progress at all.Has anyone experienced anything similar? Does anyone know what is causing this ?

My friend wanted to ask me on his behalf regarding a swollen tip shaft just below penis head. He had it after recovery circumcision which is more than 10 years now. He wants to know if it should be a cause of concern?

I'm 28 yrs bachelor and having my marriage next year. I had circumcised on 15th May. But doc said i am having adhesion between prepuce & glans. Do I need to get it operated for the 2nd time or there is any alternative process to separate the adhesion?

I decided to do circumcision in my 43 year. I lost glans sensitivity about two years ago. It became very difficult for me to reach orgasm. I thought that this will help me. I lost interest in sex, even in masturbation after. I am very unhappy because of this. I think that I did awful damage to my penis.

I'm 25 and have struggled with phimosis for most of my life. I had never been able to see my glans before as they were always covered. During an erection I still could not get them exposed and wearing a condom was just so painful so yes, still a virgin at 25.
Recently I went to the doctor and got circumcised to correct this. Its been 3 days now, still have the stitches there and the pain is ok (except for the occassional erection). My main problem is the glans..they are super sensitive,even passing a cloth there sends me to hell and back. And they are bright red in colour and swollen. How can I desensitize them?

Im 23 yrs male, got circumcised 2 weeks ago due to phimosis, everything was fine but from 4 days after removal of bandage there is thick liquid producing below the glans at incision line, it is painful like burning, my doctor said it infected. He advised me to take anti biotic injections but I was fed up with those injections bcoz I hv taken antibiotics for five days after circumcision. So he given some tablets. and also i'm using ointment called SOFRAMYCIN, is it safe to use this ointment directly on affected area? Is it will stop the infection? Is there possibilities of spreading infection to entire penis?

I had it done about five days ago now and the glans are still fairly sore to touch. It makes wearing pants fairly uncomfortable right now. It appears to be slightly bruised on closure inspection and I was wondering how long it takes for the bruising to go, completely? Is the best way to do it just to suck it up and deal with the friction between the bruised part and my underwear until it goes away itself?

I know there are numerous symptoms to Fibromyalgia which could be associated with other autoimmune disorders which leads to my problem. I went to the doctor last monday with a swollen ring finger at the joint. I also told him that I was exhausted a lot and getting dizzy spells daily. He tested me for lupus and RA, both coming back normal. He also had a x-ray taken of my finger which showed no fracture or injury. My finger is still swollen after 5 days of naproxen twice a day, still exhausted and still having dizzy spells daily. On top of that, my legs are now aching especially when I climb the stairs which never used to happen. The pain is bad enough that I have to stop for a bit until the pain subsides a little. I'm also starting to have hip pains as well as stiffness in many areas of my body. So, with that said, I was wondering if swelling is a common symptom of fibromyalgia and if so, any suggestions other than ice, heat and naproxen and ibuprofen??? I can't get my wedding ring off and I really don't want to cut it off (the ring, not my finger, hahaha).

I have been experiencing numerous symptoms since a brief encounter consisting of unprotected oral and protected vaginal sex on February 20th.
Day after encounter:-
Itchy mons pubis
Day 2-3:
The tip of my penis felt numb. I'm pretty sure I felt tingling at the base of the scrotum, which may or may not be irrelevant.
Days 4-12:
The tingling in my urethra turned into continuous burning--not any worse when urinating--which the doctor at CityMD didn't have much to say about.
Small papules formed on my upper inner thighs. The doctor prescribed me hydrocortisone, which has been somewhat helpful. My thighs still feel chaffed sometimes, but this could be unrelated. My scrotum was bright red and scaly. A different doctor (at a different CityMD) prescribed econazole, which has been fairly helpful.
Days 13-17 (current day):
The burning in my urethra has turned into more of an "ache", and has become more intermittent.
My tailbone just recently started aching, and I have been constipated, but both of these things could be irrelevant.
Throughout all of this I have had an inflamed/swollen meatus, a wrinkly/shriveled glans, and particularly dribbly clear pee left over when I go to the bathroom. If the dribbly clear pee is considered discharge it is watery odorless discharge.
My fear has been that the symptoms not explainable by the fungal infection are due to an atypical presentation of HSV-1 or HSV-2, or perhaps some other virus. There have not been any lesions, but the tingling testicles early on and the current tailbone (proximal to the sacral ganglia?) pain seem like they could plausibly be nerve-related.
I have also read about other things, like Mycoplasma genitalium and Trichomonas. I don't know if these possibilities are worth exploring or not. I am pretty sure I want a type specific IGG test for herpes 1 & 2 in any case. Could this somehow be prostate related?
One more thing: While I have not gotten any results back from my full panel STD test at CityMD, I am pretty it'll come up clean. My partner from the 20th had clean results. Also, for what it's worth, my urinalysis didn't show anything obvious at CityMD. I have not taken any antibiotics.

I'm 6 weeks 1 day into my recovery a&p repair & a hoist up of the womb.. can't remember the medical word for that. All guidance says sex is ok from 6 weeks, what a joke. I am still so swollen and sore that is the last thing on my mind! This may be tmi but my vjj is unrecognisable in a bad way, it is so lumpy and bumpy and oh so sore. They do not seem to have taken much time or consideration into the aesthetics when stitching me back up. It just looks like a mess down there I am hoping things improve.....

I have recently had a revision circumcision as the first time I had a circumcision due to tight foreskin done which was around 10 years ago it was quite a poor job, it looked messy and untidy and the scar on the top side of the penis below the glans was tender and painful. After years of just putting up with it I decided to get it done again. The surgeon was reassuring and said we can tidy it up and get rid of the painful scar etc. Anyway so I had the procedure done two weeks ago and I know it's early days and there is still swelling but I can see there is going to be yet another swollen ridge where the scar is on the top side of the shaft below glans. The rest of the circumference of the scar is healing fine, the underside and the sides are nearly all healed, swelling is going down and I can already see the scar will be level with the rest of the skin on my penis and there will not be tenderness or a ridge like there is on the top side.
What can I do about this? Why is it healing like this again? Do I just scar badly in that area? I put up with it for years before and often avoided sex because of it due to pain and embarrassment and I really hoped I could get it resolved but it looks like the same is happening again.
I see other photos of circumcisions and there is a smooth scar all the way around. The type of circumcision I have is quite loose so there is still excess skin on the shaft that can bunch up a bit behind the head, I don't know if this maybe causes the scar to roll up and heal thicker, whereas if the skin was pulled tight from head to base then maybe the scar would be flatter?
Im not sure what to do now, I thankfully was able to have this done on the NHS and can see them saying well that's it now there's nothing more we can do and I will be stuck with the painful scar. Has anyone experienced anything like this or has any advice? I would really appreciate it.

I've been on the nuvaring for 3 weeks (will take it out tomorrow for my break week) and I had sex with my boyfriend and he came inside me. He had come and the ring had been around his penis. When I saw this, I just reinserted the ring back inside. Could I be pregnant? Should I take plan b?

I have been using Nuvaring for a little over 3 years in the 4 weeks in 1 week out method. I always take it out on a Friday, get my period Monday night or Tuesday morning and it is tapering off by friday.
However last weekend I forgot to take out the ring on Friday & didn't take it out until Sunday. I know the ring isn't approved for more than 4 weeks of use but my period did come exactly 2 days later than usual on Thursday. I put a new ring in on Friday anyway and my period stopped by Saturday morning. But this morning I woke up to more bleeding. I have only ever had breakthrough bleeding when I tried to skip the withdrawal week & just insert a new ring. This breakthrough bleeding lasted about a week until I just took the ring out 1 week early (3 weeks in) & had a regular period. So basically I bled off and on for 2 weeks or so. It was really annoying. It's a different kind of blood, a darker brown color (as it was the only other time I had breakthrough bleeding). My partner is uncomfortable having sex on my period (old school I know but I find it a little less romantic having to take out a tampon mid way through foreplay & put a towel down beneath you too!). So, that just kind of makes this even more of a pain for me. I really don't want to have breakthrough bleeding for this whole month, but since last time I experienced it it stayed until my withdrawal week I just get the feeling that's what will happen. Should I just take the ring out for another week &a use a backup form of birth control?

I have a red blotchy rash on my ring finger. It does not hurt nor burn. It is not where my ring is, it is above past my knuckle. It comes and goes.

Ok, what if you are definitely not pregnant, you are on Mirena so haven't gotten your period in years and have been waking up occasionally with a off white-yellowish ring around your right nipple and your stomach feels like there's a lot of pressure until you go pee. so weird right? It's happened a few times and only on my right breast, which coincidentally has a small lump (I have gotten an ultrasound and it doesn't look like it's a concern) help?

I was just curious if anyone has had persistent ring finger numbness? I've had ct symptoms 6+ years that come and go, however, now I have this strange numbness that won't go away... primarily in my fingertip (ring finger).

I'm 25, and have recently developed symptoms (last 2-3 months). I had some mild sore wrists before but over the last few month it progressed to numbness in both hands. I did some physiotherapy and stretching and it did actually improve a bit but then my left ring finger began to develop pain and severe numbness, enough to stop me from typing with my left hand. I ice it several times a day which is keeping it at bay but doesn't do anything for the numbness.
Any comments or advice? I'm on a 1 month wait for an EMG specialist. The only thing that makes the numbness better is bending my wrist into a flexed position and holding it there for a few seconds.
