Day 17 - Question about swelling and glans coverage

Hello everyone! I'm on Day 17. Healing is going well generally. I've had no issues so far beyond some minor swelling still being around. I'm generally liking the results from the circumcision (got it for both cosmetic and medical reasons).

My question has to do with the glans coverage I get when I'm sitting a certain way. That's the first image, with me sitting straight. The second image is when I'm leaning back. Images 3, 4, and 5 are of swelling I still have, with it being really pronounced on the left side still. The right side (Image 5) has basically completely gone down.

Is the glans coverage I get when sitting a result of swelling? The first week had a lot of coverage from the swelling, even when standing, so my instinct tells me it's still that. But just curious what others think and what their experiences were.

Also, I am a grower if that factors into anything.

Thanks!

Circumcision Scheduled!

My (35m, US) procedure has been scheduled. I'm getting it done for both personal and medical reasons. Made the choice first to get it done for personal reasons, but then discovered I have a medical reason for it. It's going to happen on 7/9; they wanted to do it next week, but my nerves couldn't handle doing it that fast.

I was partially cut at birth, so I'm not expecting sensitivity to be that much of a problem because my glans get a lot of exposure already.

I do have a few questions real quick:

  1. The doctor said he'll be using a bell clamp as the method for doing the circumcision. Does that tend to leave a specific kind of style?

  2. I wear mostly boxers, so I'll have to get some underwear for the recovery. What's the best kind of underwear to get? I know tight is good, but I don't know what exactly to get.

  3. I started going to the gym because I want to shed off some weight. My routine is really simple: a brisk walk on a treadmill for 25 minutes and then I do a 2k on the rowing machine. How long before I can get back to the gym? I'm also probably moving near the end of August--I'll be good to do the move by then too, right?

  4. This might be the odd question. I produce a lot of pre-ejaculate. Will the circ change that? This is just a matter of curiosity.
