I got circumcised on the 4th Aug, approx 18 days now and the swelling has not subsided. My wounds are healed but the swelling is still bad. Any advise, what can be done to reduce the swelling?

Nothing much actually. It may take upto 2 months for everything to go done and completely recover . Just ensure the area is dry and clean . Also don't engage in strenous or sexual activities as it might aggravate the swelling . All the best !

Hi, im the same. i was circumcised on 4th Aug - last month gone. Yer swelling is the same really. But surgeon did say it could take around 2-3 months or possibly more really to calm down.

Hey my swelling has gone down alot, try using bio oil or mederma gel. The doctor told me, it is actually the scar line that causes it to look as though it is swollen
