Hi,

Usually, circumcision will pass without any complication as it is considered as a simple procedure. However, patients will notice discoloration of the penis tip turning purple. If this is what you noted, then, it could not be a problem.

However, you say to have seen this purple discoloration on your testicles with no pain at all; which seems a bit strange and not normal. Can you please send a photo of the affected area so I can analyze myself the discoloration? You can discuss this with your urologist or caring doctor for further evaluation.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Albana Sejdini
