The pic is little unclear but it looks like you are healing well. The swelling may take anything up till 2 months but it will subside over a few weeks . Don't worry about it much ! Cheers !

I’m currently on my 10th day after circumcision (17 years old). I found that on my 8th day the swelling just stopped completely. I remember going to the toilet and just thinking “Wow! That is so small all of a sudden.”

Anyways. Best of luck with your recovery, our dicks look pretty much identical lol.

Did you do anything or it went down on its own?

My swelling only started to go down after Day 10, but is still going down. I am starting week 7 now. I am guessing it will take me 3 or 4 months.

For me, yes. My glans is still sensitive, especially after bathing. There is swelling on my left side of my penis. It is better than when it was at the beginning, so I trust in time it will go down.

The glans and skin are still sensitive, so I do feel discomfort. When I go out, I wrap my penis in gauze and bandage tape to minimize rubbing, I am also wearing a sports cup with padding and a jock strap. It's given me mobility to go out. I also wear compression underwear to help keep everything together.

Week by week I notice that the sensitivity is going down. I'm type 2 diabetic and on blood thinners, so I realize my healing time is going to take longer than average.
