Does Frenuloplasty Result In A Painful Foreskin?
Sir, I 20 years old and have a height of 177cm n a weight of 58kg.
10 days back(12-01-2012) i undergone a surgery (frenuloplasty)
I was given a local anesthesia and everything were all right.
My doctor suggested an antibiotic oinment, NEOSPORIN.
I was asked to apply that twice a day.
Now the stitch is almost dissolved, but im afraid of that surgical wound.
Experiences a pain when i push back my foreskin n tries to clean dat area with water.
One of my friend told me that im not supposed to push back my foreskin untill the wound is completly heald..
Wot should I do, is this so with that incision made at the time of the surgery?
Or should I go for any other antibiotics pill and oinment to get a recovery from this.?

Hello and welcome to HCM.
As an Urologist, i can understand your anxiety.
After a frenuloplasty, in a weeks time,the wound heals completely.
Then you needn't worry about retracting the foreskin and having a bath.
No antibiotic or ointment is needed.Wait for a month for masturbation or sex.
If you've any other doubts,send it to me,as a direct question.
