Erection After Circumcision

I am now nearly 3 weeks post op. When I got an erection it's sore, feels like the tip is heavy for the shaft. The erection itself seemed nowhere near the size as it was and it appeared thick. I have found the whole experience from start to now mentally challenging, so much so I try to avoid any contact with my penis even when urinating. Anyone else have a similar problem and any solutions.

Hi man it’s still early days your penis may still have swelling which that’s alright try placing the Penis vertically to help drain the swelling away. Size of your penis should come back after the swelling has gone down. Try not to worry much as long as you are able to pee etc normally with no issues then continue to keep the penis clean and dry. Give it more time around the 7-8 week mark check back on it around the 8 week mark you can use your penis sexually see how you go any medical issues or concerns speak to your doctor. We are here for you brother keep us posted how you go on your recovery. All the best on your recovery. Would you say when you get hard it’s tender or does it feel like your penis is stretching and needs to stretch more. On my 2-3 week I was getting lots of erections which I feel is good but kinda bad but still I came out well if you have stitches though try to avoid getting erections for at least your 4 week or possibly 5 week. The inner skin will settle fine over time over the weeks and months the penis should stretch the skin to fit your penis. But seriously any issues you have speak to your doctor or surgeon you’ve got this. Continue to monitor your progress though pictures are great I did so helps to show you the improvements of healing etc.
