Has anyone felt that dick got bigger after circumcision?

Mine is not swollen but feel like has gone thicker for sure. Length is somewhat same (5.5-6 length, and now 5.5 inch thick)

I am on 34th day post operation.

Mines was bigger for a few months, but the size came back to normal now. I'm almost 5 months in and still stretching the scarline to get back to conformable.

Thanks for the reply. When did you start masturbate?What is the indication that I can resume masturbation? This is the sixth week now

I am 29 days post circ. I didn't have any swelling after 1st week. For almost first 3 weeks, My girth has increased quite significantly and my length was down a bit. And glans was really flared up and full, And my skin on penis shaft was really tight.

And on 4th week, things changed a bit, I noticed my length has been started to go to my old normal size and girth is also decreased almost to the old thickness.

My point is, even though you don't notice any visible swelling, there will be some internal swelling due to trauma which could cause girth to increase temporarily and length to decrease a bit. However as the wound healing progresses, everything would start to go old sizes.

I started masturbation after 3rd week mark. But I didn't use full up and down motion to reach climax. I used small movements on my penis shaft to reach climax. By doing this, I avoided putting too much stress on the scar.

However now I am past 4 weeks, I tried regular type masturbation with lube and it didn't give me any trouble.

If you feel your stitches are completely healed without any discharge for a week, I think you can safely start masturbation. Key is to take it easy and stop if it hurts.

Sex on other hand, you should wait at least 6 weeks and then you should use condom for couple of months to avoid opening up the wound and risking the infection.

I've read it takes at least 18 months from surgery for the penis to go back to full normality. Can you urinate, ejaculate and have sex with no issues?
