You are normal. I was and am very much more swollen than you are at 3 weeks.
That said, pain has subsided and things are coming together.
I have a Titan and I am also 45° to the left. Dr Hakky told me today to start regular cycling and also to do the compass or heliocopter stretch daily and that should lighten with time

What is the compass or heliocopter stretch?

Basically the Perito exercise. Up, left, right, down. In this case just stretch, dont go for the pop and pump Perito talks about in his YT vid

Yes I know about that. Still not sure what you mean when you say " just stretch don't go for the pop and pump"?

I believe it is important to keep it pointing straight up as much as you can while you wait to be released to cycle. In my mind's eye, I picture the other end of the implant in your crus developing supportive tissue (scar tissue) around the implant and think of it like setting a fencepost in the ground and checking and double checking whether it's plumb before compacting the dirt or rock around it or pouring in the concrete to set it.

Also, once I was released to cycle and could deflate my implant and put it away in my pants, I always aim it straight down over my sack and not to one side. All my life I was a "left dresser", and if my penis was pointed any other way but left I couldn't concentrate, I'd have to reach in and give it a quick adjustment. Since the implant, it's very happy straight down curved over my sack. This may not be a viable option with the Titan, as the AMS are softer when flaccid and are closer to a natural penis.

In talking to Dr. Clavell at one point, he mentioned that he was performing a revision on a man the same day I received my implant that didn't follow his instructions and immediately tucked his penis over to one side during the healing process, which resulted in an outcome the man was not happy with. We didn't review the man's file together, so there very well could have been other issues at work, but the point of him telling me that was to stress the importance of keeping it pointed up or at least straight through recovery. I kept mine in place using a wide band jock strap pinning it to my lower abdomen day and night for ~4 weeks before I was released to cycle.

I think the pop refers to the noise the pump makes when it is put in inflate mode.

If you watch the Perito vids he explains a fairly aggressive manner in which you bend the implant then give the pump 1-2 mor pumps. Pop is the wrong word, please watch the vid . He explains around 00:02:30 https://youtu.be/WJaZCeJjxIM?si=JakffXp9s2Hithpw
I was told to just stretch in four directions. And that would suffice.
Obviously I am nit a dr and any topic like this or this specifically should be discussed with your dr. Ive been to Clavell, who I believe you are seeing, he is more than helpful and will give you good insight into this.

More-so in the vid its the demo where he aggressivly pops the implant in each direction. Appx 00:02:30 https://youtu.be/WJaZCeJjxIM?si=JakffXp9s2Hithpw
The visual gives the impression of popping for lack of a better term the implant.
I was told to just push the implant to each thigh, up to the belly and then down as far as comfortable.
Anyone reading this should dfer to their dr on such things not me. My posts are strictly for entertainment value.

Yes I saw the video and it's clearly. Silk he never mentioned the pop word. Anyways my goal is to cycle in the morning and don't get perito exercise st tgecsake time. Leave it starcheed for one hour..reoarevat night in tge hot tub to lose things up specially st tge biggining.

I cannot say whether it is normal or not medically speaking , but I have the same problem of penis pointing out one side when flaccid and find it badly abnormal for the looks.

I am two month post op, started cycling and having sex, but so far it does not help for any straightening.

To the contrary, it seems to be “settling” in that ugly position and I hate the thought that it may remain that way forever.

I tend to think that it is just poor craftsmanship, badly asymmetrical placement of cylinders. A lousy surgery job in other words.

Unless I am wrong and it will indeed straighten with more cycling

I really cannot imagine how to do this Perito exercise on a fully inflated implant. It is rock hard, will not bend at all, will probably simply break

I am not a doctor obviously but nothing I see would concern me.

Through regular cycling, your D will likely fall where it always had previously. It's not going to stay pointing at that angle, certainly not after working with it like you are going to be in a few weeks. The bruising looks typical... you don't mention pain or anything so I say chill.

Is this a Titan or a ams?
