I'm noticing this red spot on the inner upper side of my penis glans. It doesn't hurt or itch, but I've observed it gets darker red after I masturbate or have sex, and otherwise, it just stays light red. Is this something I should be worried about?

Consult to a urologist for physical examination to be done.

It's been about 20 days since I had laser circumcision, and I still see a stitch on top. There's also some pain on the right side. How long does it usually take for the stitches to dissolve and everything to heal properly? I'm wondering if it's time to get a second opinion. Any advice or help would be appreciated!

It's common for stitches to take a little longer to dissolve after a circumcision, typically around 2-4 weeks, depending on the type of stitches used. If you're experiencing pain or if the stitch hasn't dissolved yet, it's a good idea to consult with your doctor for a follow-up to ensure proper healing and to rule out any complications. Don't hesitate to seek a second opinion for peace of mind.
