Idk what type i had. My Dr kept indicating it was a Normal Circumcision with that being said I also didn't have major swelling. The first few days was a little swollen but sensitive by the stitches area. The only real swollen area i had was where my frenulum was removed. I healed nicely in 3 weeks (frenulum still healing and it will take time I'm being told). Just keep taking care of your circumcision and put Vaseline often and or antibiotic cream. This will continue to heal it sooner.
