Continued swelling and minor pain 4 weeks after circumcision?
Hi all, I'm 18 and I got circumcised June 3 due to phimosis. Now all of the stitches have fallen out except one, and the incision area is beginning to look more normal, though it's still all reddish. Anyway, I'm a little concerned about my glans and the bottom right-side of the incision below my glans. Those two parts are still swollen. I have not noticed any reduction of swelling of my glans since I removed the dressing applied after the op. The mouth of the glans has also remained swollen (it's widened) and has not changed at all, there is also additional minor stinging during and for a short period after urination in the mouth, but that pain has been there for 2 weeks and has not gotten worse. The bottom part that I mentioned above is swollen whenever I wake up in the morning and then goes down during the day. I put a light layer of gauze over my penis at night to make sleeping more comfortable and every morning there are a few little yellow, hardened, and sort of mucus-looking, stains on it. The head will very occasionally ache a little, and it sort of hurts for a second around the incision area on the top, when it swings around like when I'm walking. I have seen 4 different doctors since the op, the last one I saw about a 1 week and a half ago. They pretty much all said I was fine, two subscribed me addition antibiotics. I have finished a total of 4 different antibiotics. Am I okay?
