I recently had a zsr circumcision on February 22nd and now all the staples along with the silicon ring have fallen off. There's just a tiny bit still attached to the skin and when I try to remove it, it hurts a little, which is really freaking me out. I'm worried that pulling it might cause some other issues. Could you tell me if it's safe to pull it off myself? Also, I'm curious if I can now engage in sexual activities like intercourse or masturbation.

It is not advisable to pull off the remaining portion yourself as it may lead to complications. I recommend visiting your doctor for proper evaluation and guidance on how to proceed. As for sexual activity, it is best to avoid it until you have fully healed to prevent any potential issues or infections.
