I didn\'t use strips. It seemed like I needed them but was told to keep it open and use the shower head on the white tissue. You are keeping the wound open which is counter intuitive, but the new tissue came from the bottom up. It took about 6 weeks and at first it was a very slow process and then all at once it came together.
I have a whitish line, but the rest of my shaft is still dark from the surgery so I trus it will all come together in the end. It is not noticeable Flaccid, but is a little noticeable hard, but much less than a month ago so I assume it will all come together. The oil is great for softening the scar tissue. I am not worried about it, and if someone asks I am telling them I had a penis reduction as it was just too fucking big before. Most important thing is the get rid of and keep out the white tissue.

Hey - thanks a lot for letting me know. When it was stitched and I posted that pic, I remember you said it would just turn into a line - but when it started spreading out, I was like...oh...crap...especially since the other one is basically healed into a line now. But, that\'s great that it turned into a line for you. Is it noticeable Erect?

I saw your pics at 2 months post. Is this about how long it took to be ok to have sex? I\'m just trying to get a handle on how long my celibacy period will extend... It\'s too bad I was seeing someone (kinda informally) before all this - and I think by now he\'s kinda over it with me since I\'ve been sexually MIA.

Did you use anything to hold it together, like steri strips?

Hi Restoration,
if you look at my thread I had the same hole - I was told that the white stuff is non-viable connective tissue and has to go - and the best way to get rid of it is to stand in the shower and let water hit it. I did this at least twice a day; 3 x\'s if I could. The wound does fill up with regular red tissue and the hole is 100% gone now.

I did have a line of tougher scar tissue left. A friend gave me Tamanu oil to put on it, which worked. The best way to put it on I realized after a few days, was to use it as lube when you jerk off - it makes all the skin on your Dick better.

What is left is a thin white line that is not noticeable when Flaccid and less and less visible as time goes by. There is no difference in height between where the hole was and the rest of my tissue now.

The most important thing is to break up the white tissue as that will keep the healthy tissue out. It looks like you have some white tissue that is dried up in there but I may be wrong. Use the shower a lot, it works.

ps the Tamanu Oil is for once the hole is filled, just use antibiotic ointment until the hole is filled with healthy tissue.

Thanks CHL. I was gonna make a whole post about all the microscopic side of things, but I don\'t want to make the info confusing - and I\'m not a pathologist. I met a really nice pathologist sit with me for 45 min and go over everything that she knew about the situation. She\'s never seen PMMA before but she\'s seen a lot of silicone leakage from breast implants and other things, so she said it sort of reminded her of that, just a smaller diameter of the particles. The reaction is similar in terms of how the body walls off the foreign particles (same with anything, even a splinter - silicone just looks like blobs too).

My wound (from above) never closed so I went back to the doc & he debrided and stitched again (now 4 weeks post Removal). I hope the PMMA in the tissue isn\'t affecting the wound closure. He\'s leaving the stitches in 2 weeks this time...which will mean the wound is taking 6 weeks just to close. But, I think by mid - july... I\'ll be normal-ish.

Well, this time the stitches were in for 10-12 days and the Necrosis is back. So, now it\'s 5 weeks after the Nodule excision...and it\'s still fucked up.

I am going to lose my mind at this point.

The other sites look okay...but not great. The one in my deglove scar is invisible...and the one I did myself is nearly invisible.

I have no idea why my derm used silk Sutures as they are notoriously inflammatory and I was already having a foreign body reaction...now I have redness around all the suture sites with entry holes.

Has anyone here been through anything like this ever? I seriously can\'t deal with any more Dick problems.



VS. NORMAL HEALING



I wonder if that dent is permanent.

Hey Restoration - if you are referring to the white tissue in the open wound I had that and was told no more stitches by the doctor.
My wound opened up 3 days after the surgery. He told me to keep it open and run the shower head on it twice a day to break it up and it worked. It took about 3 weeks. I have a visible line now but no dent. It is hard to say if the line is permanent as I still have hyper pigmentation on my dick from the surgery which is slowly fading. It may just all blend in when I fully recover.

As far as the dent I have had a lot of scars and none have healed with a dent so I bet it doesn\'t; I know when I get overly distressed all these little things completely overwhelm me (I am talking about the dent now, which is not the least bit unnatural or unattractive). I have seen a lot of dicks in my day and none are identical and they all have their quirks and I have never thought twice about them - I am usually more aware about the person they are attached to. The down side of this site is that we end up overly identifying with our dicks sometimes.

If the white tissue pic is a recent one, use the shower technique it works and you have more control over the situation than when it is stitched shut.

Lastly, I use Tamanu Oil on my dick to soften the scar tissue from the stitches. I would forget to put it on sometime and then I realized you can beat off with it

Yeah, I\'m already on a benzo + something else was added when all this went down a couple months ago. I don\'t think any of it helped that much. They won\'t give any higher dose of benzos anymore.

Oh, moving is a separate issue. I hate it regardless. I am up to box #20...it just sucks. There\'s no way around it. And, I don\'t think the new place is that great. It has a weird floor plan that makes it look big - but when I actually measured, it\'s a lot smaller than my place...about 20% smaller. And it smells. I thought it was the tenant, but he moved out and it was cleaned - and it still smells like someone\'s body odor or mold.

I\'m actually ok with the way 2 of the scars turned out...including one that I did on the lower left. I was just trying to show a comparison. The one that won\'t heal is just concerning me the most (with the yellow tissue inside). The others will probably flatten out more or fill in - i just don\'t know...but it sounds like they will.

I mean, someone might think I had warts taken off...and have HPV. Would you think that?

Your scars don\'t even look like warts - they tend to be around that base of the shaft and the Balls, and not linear - plus the skin is usually denser and harder in those areas. I never would of thought of warts looking at your scars - 95% of which I am sure will be gone in 6-8 months, I would not stress waiting for that to happen, you won\'t be getting any of that tie back and they will heal in spite of worrying about it.

Scar question (some graphic pics) 8 years 9 months ago #1287861435

lol a biter. I have these scars in a line on each side, so if someone thought they were warts i could just say I had surgery through small incisions like laproscopic surgery of sorts. What do you think of that? At least that\'s my thinking for now - before 2 years. I could also say a piercing but do guys get piercings in the shaft? I\'ll have to see how they look in a month or so. These are early pics (3-5 weeks) so I think it\'ll improve. My deglove scar is virtually invisible after 12 mos. But, there was no Removal of any tissue or anything.

I can\'t postpone my move because of lease end and lease start dates. I\'d give anything for someone to help me finish packing and bring some things over to the new place...It\'s so much work. My friends are all busy busy busy. I haven\'t moved in 3 years - mostly cuz I hate it so much. I never really liked my apt that much, but once I was here I didn\'t feel like moving. I don\'t even think I like the new place that much...but this place is getting insanely priced.

Yeah good point - I have had multiple piercings that I completely forgot about as there are no more scars to show for it. I even fell through a plate glass table many years ago had 60 stitches in my face and they have also disappeared.

By the way, it sounds like you are having a major stress response which makes sense if you are moving. If someone asks about your scars tell them that your ex was a biter so you dumped him. \"Long story, I\'ll tell you later..\" I use that line on everybody for all sorts of Dick issues.

Restoration those scars remind me of past piercing, a few gals thought i had laser treatments to remove warts, i had to show them past photos to convince otherwise. Now you can\'t even tell i had any alterations, it took me about 2 years before the scaring was absent to minimal. You might have to wait that long, dim the lights, put on a condom and no one will know the difference, or dim the lights and let her suck suck. Unless she\'s a sexpert she\'ll ask whats up with your penis? Your response can be:

Sorry to hear about your continued struggles. I know moving can be very stressful. Would it be possible to postpone until you have recovered further. Mental unrest can undermine the tissue healing response more than you might think. If not, it may not be a bad idea to speak with a counselor or support group. Best of luck.

Here\'s some more. What do you think? If it seems crazy I did it myself, it\'s just because I have all the sterile equipment and epi and lidocaine. I used to do animal surgery that was actually fairly similar (except we used staples & my suture skills are pathetic - though I could practice a little & probably do just fine). One of my nastiest, deepest incisions healed GREAT just with steri strips. The other ones reacted to the suture material and seem to be delayed or just very atrophic (like an ice pick acne scar). I hope it fills in like yours did. I know this is all early, but since it\'s been going on since March 24 - it\'s making me nuts.





This bottom right one was the biggest mistake since my entry point Nodule here wasn\'t that bad...and the stitch reaction and scar are much worse (at least now at 3 weeks ). Maybe in a few months it will flatten...

Thanks hunkydory...yeah i really hoped this would be over by now so i\'m glad it worked for you. I put the shower head right on there but it didn\'t break it up. The derm used a blade to cut out the yellow stuff last time.

I bought tamanu oil a week ago - I\'ve used it a few times but i have steri strips on some of the spots so it\'s hard to keep it from running onto those and loosing them. I\'ll use it once it\'s all stable.

My uro (who replies to emails in like 10 minutes - it\'s crazy) said \"It\'s not Necrosis- it\'s fibrosis- scarring which is filling in from the base of the wound. Not much to do other than local skin care that maybe the derm can address- if it does not heal this skin may need excision and primary closure but not yet.\"

So... I guess these things have to heal.

Anyway, on the Nodule front - I still feel hard patches of PMMA in there... so they wouldn\'t have softened up with time (at least not 3 months). There\'s a prominent one on the top of my shaft that is invisible to the eye but very palpable.

Regarding scars - I just don\'t want a guy to think I had warts removed or something...and have HPV. I\'ve seen plenty of dicks too but none with holes. Maybe they will fade...but I cannot believe how long it\'s been since I could do anything. I avoided pride since that ends up being a fuckfest. I avoided so much stuff... I keep putting people off who wanted to meet me SINCE MARCH! How long can I have colds and headaches and \"too much work\" ... ugh ... they are gonna think i am the biggest flake but I can\'t do anything - still at least a month away now that the wound is open again.

Oh, and i\'m moving for the first time in 3 years.... i hate moving. It\'s all just too much crap right now. I don\'t even like where I\'m moving & i have to park outdoors in this weird fucked up spot... I\'m rambling, sorry - i am just in a bad mood these days. Moving and a scarred up penis are making me nuts.
