Hello
Thanks for query.

To have red hard and itchy frenulum after surgery of Circumcision is natural and normal due to inflammation .

You need to take broad spectrum antibiotic like Cefixime along with anti inflammatory drug like Diclofenac twice daily.along with topical antibiotic ointment like Neosporin twice daily.

Ensure to wash your genitals with warm water twice daily.

Ensure to avoid sexual encounters till it heals up completely.

Do not worry this will get cured within two weeks as the wound heals completely.
