The area between the circumcision scar and head is much thicker than the rest of the shaft. Is something wrong?
This area consists of more delicate tissue and tends to swell more than the rest of the shaft. Generally, the effect goes away fairly quickly and things look close to normal at about 2 weeks. Sometimes, with dermal grafting, the penis can look unusually broad and flat for several weeks. This effect normally corrects itself over time.
