Swelling and sensitivity 4 weeks post op circumcision

Hi there Fellas. This has been the most challenging month of my life. I had to get circumcision as last medical option. I’m on day 28 post op. So far my suture line is about 85% healed. Just a small amount of scabs remaining where the frenulum was removed and a few stitches. Other than that it’s great. My biggest issue is sensitivity and swelling below the glans and in the frenulum area. Lymphoedema It’s been called by my physician. It’s somewhat of an expected complication after circumcision. The only advice I get from him is that it will resolve on its own in times. How ever I met a lymph drainage specialist( didn’t know they exist). She said that getting massages should help expedite the recovery and move the lymph. Any suggestions about that? Also, my glans has desensitized enough to wear cloth touching is tolerable. However, the pee hole part is intolerable to any touching so I am having trouble wearing underwear. Any advice? Thanks in advance! This forum has helped my anxiety daily! I’m not in this alone
