Do I try pulling the skin down or cleaning it in some way?

I got circumcised 3 days ago. However, the foreskin is swollen and I can’t even see the stitches below the glande.

You can but make sure the suture doesn't break yet you personally feel no hurts.

Hi mate.

Similar situation. If you look back at my posts you can see the pics.

I couldn’t resist and gently pulled the skin down over the swelling to have a look. All looks OK, tiny bit of concern over an area that looks a bit separated with a gap but I hope this will sort itself out.

My advice would be let the swelling go down, your so soon afterwards. Let it sort itself out and have a good look at it when the wound is more stable. Annoying I know.

I would say definitely no pulling yet.

Try giving it a swish in short bath with very mild soap or salt.
