Hello Rajat Ji,
Thank you for sharing your concern. If your circumcision feels too tight and painful, especially during certain activities like urination or sexual activity, it could be due to a few reasons, and it’s important to get it evaluated by a specialist.
Residual tightness or scarring:
After circumcision, some men may experience tightness if the skin wasn't removed adequately or if healing caused excessive scarring.
Phimosis-like symptoms:
In rare cases, some tight foreskin or leftover ring may remain, causing discomfort.
Dryness or irritation:
Lack of lubrication or dryness can make the skin feel tight and sore.
Infection or inflammation:
Redness, pain, or swelling may indicate local infection (balanitis or post-op complication).
What should you do?
Apply a mild antiseptic ointment or doctor-recommended moisturiser to ease dryness (but only temporarily)
Avoid friction or sexual activity until you’re more comfortable
Wear loose cotton undergarments
Do not forcefully pull or stretch the skin, as that may worsen pain
Please consult a urologist to examine the area. The doctor will check:
If the healing is complete
If there's skin tightening, infection, or the need for a minor corrective procedure
Wishing you quick relief and comfort, Rajat Ji. Let us know if you’d like help finding a trusted urologist near Faridabad or booking a consultation.
