I had this done to my son 24 hours after he was born. He is about 10 weeks old now and it doesn't look right to me. There's some white stuff around some of the area and it does not wash off in bath. Some of it looks like its separating. I don't know exactly how long this takes or if I should put something on it.

It should not take that long to heal! I would take him to the doctor immediately, but keep putting vaseline or whatever you put on it because Im sure it is painful for him in his diaper. My son had white stuff around the ring part but washed off. There is definately something wrong, poor little guy.

He's 10 weeks and it still doesn't look right? Take him to the doctor. My son's was completely healed in less than a week.

It should be completely healed by now. I don't know what the white stuff is but, you should certainly call who ever did the circumcision and let them know and have them take a look. I'm assuming it's not just fuzz from his diapers that keeps reappearing and kind of sticking to him?

It should be healed by now. My sons only took about 2-3 weeks to completely heal. I would take him to the doc.

My son's did the same thing. There was whitish material around the "rim" in a couple of spots. It came and went a couple of times - like your son's, it did not fall off in the bath - but it eventually seemed to work its way out/off. I had the doctor check him at his 2-month and 4-month checkups and she said he was healed just fine.

There are different methods of performing a circumcision, but regardless, it should be healed by now. Sometimes a plastic ring fails to separate properly. A visit to your pediatrician should suffice.
