3rd week of post circ

Hello everyone, I’m at third week post of my circ. I noticed that there is lost of length and it looks thick instead. When it flaccid my shaft also looks thick is that normal? When is erect I can feel the tightness of it. My doctor said is because the scar tissue still there that why can’t stretch as much and over time the scar tissue will soften and tightness will go away. Is that true?

Also, need advice is it better to massage with coconut oil or bio oil? I know bio oil can reduce the scar. How about coconut oil?

Thank you!

Swelling on penis can last several months post-op. Probably your thickness is just swelling. There can tight rubber band feeling on incision site. Scar will loosen within next 4-6 months.

Thank you!By the way I read your other post, instead of using bio oil you are using emollient cream with ceramides. May I know which brand you are using?

I have used domestic brand, but that is quite similar than 'CeraVe moisturising cream'. There are other options too. Remember brand is not a thing.
