Will my swollen skin between my incision and glans return to normal state?

I was circumcised a little over 3 weeks ago, Dr used a mogen clamp and skin glue to seal things up. All in all it went really well, pain was easily managed with Tylenol, incision healed up nice. There was quite a bit of swelling between the incision and the glans which was to be expected especially on the underside and frenulum, my only concern would be that because that skin was so swollen and stretched I’m worried that it may not go back to its original state. I was in touch with the Dr and he said it can take up to 3 months for everything to fully recover. I’m really hopeful that the skin will shrink up back to its original state. If anyone has had this same scenario I’d like to hear your feed back. Thanks.

I’m way earlier in the healing process but I have exactly the same symptoms on only one side of the penis where just under the glans and above the incision there is this bumpy/swollen area. I guess it happens to mostly everyone and it should heal with time! Around the 6 month mark you should be able to know the full outcome of your circumcision! Cheers!

Thanks for your input. Just have to be patient I guess. Lol. Was yours done with a mogen clamp if you don’t mind me asking

No, mine was just a free hand circumcision! And no worries! Best of luck

Hi mate, how has this turned out for you? I'm currently day 8 and used the Mogen Clamp too, symptoms you described are identical to mine, curious to know how you are 3 months down the line?

The swelling started to go down after week 8 for me. I am a type 2 diabetic who takes blood thinning and heart medication.
