Yes swelling after circumcision is perfectly normal. The bottom part, where the frenulum was, is the most sensitive and takes the longest to heal. To try and lower the swelling, you might take an ibuprofen, keep your waist elevated when laying in bed above your heart and keep your penis upwards so that the head (penis glans)always goes "up".

How long does it take too heal?

There is no set time. It is individual. One could say, it takes as long as it takes. Could be 2 weeks, could be 4, could be more. Everyone is different.

Yes this is very normal! I’m 10 days post op now, still very swollen but it can take upto 2-3 months for it to fully heal. However, most of the improvement and healing should be done after the first month or so
