Are they saying that kind of swelling is normal?

We sure are .. but I think over time many more will join our herd ..

I went in with an appointment and she did a 1/2 ass explanation of how to do it. Never touched me or showed me or had me do it just said many of her patients hold it at the base and bend it up or down ...she was really clueless.

I have a Rigicon which is a mallabble implant since 6-2023. It is not hard to hide at all I have the old man belly and a lower fat pad so hiding it is no issue.
