Erection discomfort after circumcision

My circumcision was done 54 days ago as I write this post. Everything looks normal. I have no stitches now, all of them have dissolved/fallen off. I have no scabby areas that can come out and bleed.

my erection before circumcision was like at a perfect 90 degree angle perpendicular to my body, but after circumcision, there is some tightness in the skin that pulls my penis upward pointing upward, but not too much (probably making an 70-75 degree angle).

I am wondering if anybody else who has got their circumcision done witnessed a tight erection but then the skin near the surgical area loosened as time went by. Will my penis be fully erect at its earlier 90 degree angle? Or will I have to find a way to loosen that skin because I can feel it is trying to be "more erect", but cant extend out all the way.

My uneducated guess is that the skin will loosen naturally. People who stretch skin on other parts of their body do manage to lengthen it. For instance, some successfully do exercises to overcome phimosis - overly tight foreskin. Some other men have wanted their foreskin back after circumcision, and to some degree, they are able to grow it back. I supposed in your case exercises to stretch that skin would help, and probably be enjoyable also. - Jeremy, Medibation.com

I understand that skin stretching exercises help with the issue. Here's some info:

It has been more than a year now since the circumcision. after the 3 month mark, my skin loosened, and my penis now erects just like before. it was unusually tight because of abstinence/a lack of masturbation. Im sure if I do not remain sexually active/masturbate, it will erect like a mofo again. Im quite happy with circumcision because in my case phimosis was reducing the quality of sex I was having. Now I am happier for it! :)
