First week of circumcision recovery

I had done circumcision due to phimosis. Surgery with Local anaesthesia went fine. Took a painkiller when I got home. No pain after first day. The bandages were bloody for the first two days. But no bleeding after 48 hours. Swelling of shaft reduced by first week . The head remains swollen. It's been 8 days now and the erections are starting which are really painful. Pics attached before surgery and during the first week.

Hmm what helped me was starting a new hobbie which required thinking power. This will keep you from getting an erection. Also it helped me to use sleeping pills so I wont lay in bed thinking about it all night
