Penis :: Circumcision Scar Line Bumps
Jul 3, 2016
So I've been circumcised for medical reasons when I was an infant, but I'm realizing recently that my circumcision scar line might be kind of abnormal. It has always been this way, but the scar area is very slightly darker and raised with some bumpiness. It is completely painless. I have never had sex so I don't know how I would've gotten an STI, and like I've said it's been there for as long as I can remember. Please let me know your thoughts/if this is anything I should worry about!

I'm 20 and have been circumcised since I was a baby. Until now I never really noticed but I have a long scar on my penis. I don't know if pictures are authorised but here is one :
Is this normal ? I thought circumcision only cut the foreskin, why is there such a long scar here ? An would women find this weird ?

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 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.

not completely sure what this is but it is related to all these topics about some kind of "skin bridge".
on the back of my penis there is a darkish line that goes all the way to the top. where the darkish line meets the end of my foreskin there is something that i think may be this skin bridge. I am 14 and going through puberty, i also have this "phimosis" thing and i cannot full pull back my foreskin yet though have tried exercising and stretching it. This is really lowering my self esteem which is the last thing i need during this time in my life with GCSE's and general development

Is there any other way around a circumcision?

I have noticed that in the area from a few mm below my circumsision to below my head on the left side there is a bulge. This bulge is a rounded area. The colour is a little lighter at the point which comes out furthest from the rest of my penis. It does not always occur, and can be removed by squeezing the enlarged circular area. When erect it appears normal. I tried pe stretching a few months ago and did feel a sharp pain, then I stopped. I am unsure if it correlated to that. I can not remember exactly when it began. It is not painful. And has been occuring for months. I mastubate once daily. Thank you for your time. 15 male white

Is it possible for the doctor not to trim the foreskin after a plastibell circumcision and let the foreskin fall off with the ring?

I am 19 years old and i had a circumcision due to phimosis 9 days ago.
Some of the stitches are gone and it is not so swollen anymore. I still can't masturbate of course as it hurts.
I got an erection today. I was not fully erected but still.... When i got the erection I saw that my penis was really smaller than it used to be.. I measured it and I found it was 10 cm... Before circumcision I was 16.5 cm.
Will my penis return to its normal size over the time? (6 weeks after the operation) Have something went wrong? Could this be because I am still swollen down there and because I can't get fully erected due to the stitches?

Well I'm 23 and have had this problem for as long as I can remember. I finally went to the doctors and was forwarded to the hospital this week. Seen the doctor there and have been told the best way forward is to have an Circumcision! Now this seems the best way forward as i can't even pull my foreskin back. But since google-ing this topic I have read some really horror stories on Circumcision. I'm from the UK and it's not a very common thing to have done. I really need some advice as to go forward with this as i have the op in 4 weeks on the NHS free.

Can the skin on the testicles be removed just like circumcision where the skin covering the glans is removed.

So, I went to see my urologist last month and he noticed that my foreskin became tighter. It has always been tight, since I was born, and I'm incapable of retracting it when erect. Whilst flaccid, I don't have any problem. But he said that, sooner or later, I won't even be able to do it at all.
I'm not afraid of the operation. In fact, I think it will be for the best.
What I want to ask is about the outcome of getting my foreskin removed. Until now, with my glans covered, sexual stimulation is practically null, whether vaginal or oral. My penis feels and looks almost like a finger, actually, and I'm not kidding. I was wondering if getting circumcised will indeed improve my sexual life.
Here are some issues regarding my penis that haunted me since forever:-
I'm generally scared of intimacy, because I'm so self-conscious about my penis: it looks kind of weird, strange, different from the other's, with that extra piece of skin. That makes me feel so very anxious, which commonly keeps me from having a full hard erection. (That's also where most of my performance anxiety in bed comes from).
Maybe getting rid of my foreskin will not only boost my confidence and self-esteem, but also help me to achieve faster, easier and harder erections: besides the psychological factors, there are plenty of nerve terminals in the penis' head, which remain inevitably unstimulated during sex due to the interference of the foreskin. Having the glans totally exposed, I guess, will make arousal not only possible but also more enjoyable. Correct me if I'm wrong.
People, I'll appreciate so much your input on this matter. It's so important to me to finally have a full and rich sexual life, just like it is for everyone else. In short: will circumcision boost my self-esteem and self-confidence (since I won't feel "deformed" anymore when naked), and will it contribute to feel more stimulation and, therefore, better erections?

I'm 15 years old and I was told I was circumcised by my parents and I searched and found out that I had something called a loose circumcision which is really embarrassing in my opinion. It honestly looks like i'm not circumcised because there's some extra skin but the skin stops like a few millimeters before my head. I can't retract this skin permanently it just goes back to it's normal position. Is there anyway I can stop this from happening? Also is this still considered foreskin? and also does masturbating affect this in anyway? Any info, experiences, fixes, techniques would be honestly save me as I'm getting a bit depressed from the look of my penis.

I was circumcised on Friday (3 days ago) for medical reasons at the age of 23.
I have two issues that I'm looking for some advice with.
1. Below the glans, roughly at the height of the stitches, my penis is swollen. I know that some swelling is normal, but I don't know if mine is still in the normal range. It's swelling is about as thick as my pinky, maybe even ring finger. It's thicker than the actual glans area. So when I wear my pants, the swollen are is slightly pressed against my stomach and hurts quite a lot. (I was told to position my penis in an upright pose and wear skinny underpants).
Is this normal? How much swelling is acceptable and for how long? Should I be worried? I was just on the phone with the doc and I was told that swelling is normal, he didn't let me go into details.
2. I took off the bandage that was applied by the doc the day after the operation. I wasn't told to apply any bandages on my own, just to used some salve. The backside of my glans (penis upright) keeps sticking to my textil underpants. It's quite difficult to take them off and hurts a lot. I thought it was because of the salve I used, but even without it's the same. Should I still be using bandages or something?
Thanks.

I am 20, i am suffering through partial phimosis where i am able to retract my foreskin when its flaccid but cannot do so when its erect. I noticed that i might have short frenulum where the frenulum is attached to my foreskin and is attached to the tip of the penis head, right where the urethra hole is.
Although i dont suffer any pain while urinating or while erection but it pains trying to forcefully retract foreskin while erection.
I strongly dont want to go for circumcision or surgery. Please help regarding the methods. Are there any creams available in india OTC. I am losing my self confidence, will it create problem during sex even with a condom

I had problem with tight foreskin and on doc's advice have had a circumcision. Just got my dressing off this morning and feeling quite painful (burning feeling). Painkillers are helping, but tip of penis is very sensitive. Also noticed a large blister on penis head. My penis is well below average size, should I be worried about this blister kind of thing?

My penis seems to be circumcised (no foreskin cover the glands) but there's a strip of about 1/4 inch that’s still connected on the top which makes for these two very small pockets (one on either side) where small amount of smegma build up.
