For temporary relief you can try ice packs. Place a cloth around the ice pack and place it on the swollen areas for about 15 to 20 mins. Also keep the penis pointing upwards towards your navel. Ibuprofen can also help with the pain.

I am on day 21 of my recovery. The swelling started to go down for me once the stitches started to fall off around day 10 to 14, maybe different for you as everyone heals different.

The key is to give it time. It starts to get better after day 10 provided you take good care of the wound.

Just give it time .. It was real bad for me first 12 days .. Now it's getting somewhat better

Swelling is part snd parcel of surgery. It will reduce when it is ready to do so.

Swelling is perfectly normal and all part of the healing process. Most is due to te lymph that your body brings to any wound with 'building materials' to repair it.

Be prepared for some swelling to last for at least 8 weeks, but usually it starts to go down after about 2 weeks, especially if all your atitches are out (or removed) then.
