Adult Circumcision
This group is dedicated to men of all ages who have or may required the surgical removal of their foreskin as adults and men who have the experience to having been both cut and uncut. It is the hope of this group to have open discussion about the pros and cons and the conditions that required it's members to have the procedure done. We would like to establish a forum of questions and answers...
Finally happening
Return to DiscussionsIve finally bitten the bullet after many years of mulling it over, and Ive arranged to be circumcised in February of next year.
Im both excited and nervous. I was looking to see if anyone had any tips (ha, unintentional pun!) on how to cope with the first days after the procedure? Ive got a fairly high pain threshold I would imagine, considering all the tattoos/piercings/fucking myself up at work Ive gone through, but you can never be over prepared!!
Update:
I am on day 6, provided you count Sunday, the day of the op, as day 1. I do as it was done first thing in the morning
So:
The questions Ive been asked and their answers;
Was it sore: not at all, I had local anaesthetic and felt nothing
How sore is it after: personally i have experienced absolutely no pain. I havent taken any painkillers whatsoever since leaving immediately after my surgery was completed.
Are night time boners awful: I havent actually experienced any so cannot comment. Or, if I have, I havent noticed any pain or been woken by them
What does it look like straight after: swollen; and bruised. Though all my swelling is mostly gone and the bruising has lightened significantly now
Did you keep your frenulum: I asked if I could keep it, and they said theyd try but it was VERY short and tight so probably not. And they were right, they had to remove it sadly
What style did you get: low and tight. Meaning that my scar will be right behind my bellend when fully healed (low) and most of the skin is away leaving enough to comfortably get an erection but my bellend will always be exposed even when soft, not partially covered (tight)
Are you going to pierce it: Im thinking I might get a PA next year after its had a good year to fully recover from this
Are you happy with it: absolutely! I wish i had done it before. Its not even been a week yet and I already love how it looks, how its going to look and the fact that Ill no longer have pain or difficulty when I have erections
Would you recommend doing it: if you like the look of it, then yes. I always preferred the look but didnt want to do it in case Id regret it, but medical necessity pushed me into it. If you need it because its too tight, no doubt in my mind just do it because you will thank yourself for it.
If I get any more FAQs, I will put them in further updates
Overall, I love it, and I wish I had done it so much sooner than I did. One of the best things Ive ever done.
Ok time for some humor. There was a rabbi who saved the foreskins from the Brit ceremonies for many years. He took them to a leather specialist. The specialist said come back in three days. On the third day the rabbi returned and the guy gave him a coin purse. The rabbi was shocked that all those years resulted in just a coin purse. But the specialist pointed out " if you rub it, you get a briefcase"
