Hi its been 9 days since I got circumcised.

The swelling is still pretty bad. When I wake up in the morning my glands are exposed (looks like I have been circumsized). But after an hour i feel like the swelling increases and my glands retract (alot now covered with swelling - its like I never got circumsized, just the tip shows (not the whole gland). Did this happen to anyone else? When you wake up, the penis glands are perfectly exposed, but then they are covered for the rest of the day. When I get a random erection, the glands are also exposed (looks like i am circumcised again.

Please let me know! Any tips for the swelling?

Thanks!

Some swelling can continue for months and you are very early in your healing process. Some guys report that keeping the penis upright in a tight pair of briefs helps get rid of swelling. Give it some time and it should get less.
