After circumcision procedure, mild swelling behind the glans can persist for 4–8 weeks in some patients, especially near the staple line. At 5 weeks, this can still be part of the normal healing process if there is no pus, foul smell, fever, or severe pain.
The penis usually starts looking more normal by 6–8 weeks, but complete settling of swelling and skin tightness may take 2–3 months. Pain or discomfort during sex is also common early on because the tissue is still healing and sensitive.
It is generally advised to avoid sexual activity until the swelling and tenderness reduce completely. If the swelling is increasing, feels hard, or pain is significant, a follow-up with your surgeon is recommended to rule out delayed healing or infection.
