Had circumcision surgery a month ago on May 5th but still can't wear underwear directly using cotton to cover it. The stitches haven't dissolved yet and there's high sensitivity in the open area, plus some pain when touching the stitches. How much longer until it heals completely and I can get back to normal?

Wear loose clothing for example: pyjamas, tracksuit bottoms for the first few days. It is advisable to try and avoid wearing underwear, do so until you feel comfortable enough to resume wearing them. It is advisable especially if your work is heavy (manual, driving) to stay off work for at least one week.

View allI'm getting this weird stomach pain, especially on the lower left side, whenever I wear a belt or tight pants. It's uncomfortable, and if I'm wearing loose pajamas or shorts, the pain doesn't happen. Sometimes there's even a bit of discomfort in the testicle area. This has been going on for a while now, and I'm starting to wonder if it's something I should see a doctor about, or if it might just go away on its own. Any ideas or advice?
It sounds like you might be experiencing pressure-related discomfort, possibly due to a hernia, nerve irritation, or another underlying issue. It's best to consult a doctor to evaluate this, as early treatment can prevent complications. In the meantime, avoid tight clothing.

I'm facing a really painful issue. Every time I have sex or my partner gives me oral, my foreskin tears, and it's really hurting a lot. It's especially painful if I try to have sex within the next day or two after it happens. It usually takes around 23 days for it to heal completely. What can I do about this, and is there a way to prevent it from happening in the first place?
don't to like that
