2 months after circumcision- still swollen

2 months after circumcision my penis is still super swolen and sensitive. Really worried- ive had sex a few times and its always been really sensitive after. Felt like it was going down but it ballooned up again, in the classic spot- under the head where the incision was.

Is there anything I can do? Not have sex until this is better.. any kinds of home remedies?

Cutting down on sugar and plenty of water seems to help me.

I'm trying to eliminate the factors that could have caused an increase in swelling for me.

At the moment I have: stop showering with high water pressure (gentle water only), wear a bandage (don't allow swelling area to touch underwear, especially ones that have been washed in detergent), sleep on back or side (not on belly), drink plenty of water, cut down on sugar.

The day my swelling increased substantially was the day I was low on water, and ate more sugar than normal (cheat day). I also did all of the above. So try drinking plenty of water and see how it goes. Try to eat less sugar, because sugar actually dehydrates you and causes your body to pull water out of your cells instead.

Also see if you notice a difference in the size of the swelling after sex. If you do every time, you might have to refrain from sex until your body heals.
