When he still had his foreskin,a year ago, his penis would point almost straight upward when hard, almost touching his belly when standing.. Now after the foreskin has been trimmed off,(circumcised) it only points like straight out when hard. I mean it still gets hard and all it just doesn't stand up as high like it used to.
Also it looks like it is stretched tight and I can see the brown scar line around it where the foreskin was attached about mid way on the shaft. He says it doesn't bother him and I have to admit I do like it better.
Is the circumcision the cause of this or some other reason why penis just points out instead of up. It didn't used to be this way.

You answered your own question, it's stretched tight.
A lot of men have just a little too much removed. This can cause slight curving or change of angle as there isn't enough skin to expand into. Most, circumcised as infants, stretch during puberty and it doesn't matter so much. Others bodies compensate by drawing skin from the testicles up onto the shaft, hence you see a lot of hairy circumcised penises (wax or shave time).
At this point you've got what you've got, the skin may expand slightly over the months/years to give him some relief, but in general if it's not bothering him, just you, leave it alone. If the circ is only a year old he'll also notice over the next 5 years or so that the sensation changes. I won't say diminishes, but it sure changes. I hope you both prefer it.

There are nerves, arteries, and veins in the foreskin that continue all the way down through the shaft of the penis. When these arteries and veins are severed it's possible that blood flow to the area is decreased somewhat. Also, if after his circumcision if the remaining skin is stretched really tight that could also restrict the maximum amount of blood going "comfortably" into the penis. Then again, perhaps his penis just simply reacts differently after the operation. So, is circumcision the cause? Probably, but it might not be.

This is a common complication of circumcision. Complications occur in about 15% of circumcisions, removal of too much skin, or in your case, uneven removal is the most common.
Many complications of circumcision at birth do not become evident until years later when sexual activity begins.
Now that is is done there is little that can be done about it, he is fortunate that in his case the disfigurement is not creating any discomfort and so far is not causing great dysfunction.

A couple things could be happening..........
1. He is a year older. This may have taken place due to age and it would have occured anyway. Your question doesn't give his age.
2. His penis is scared to death since someone cut on it.
When it stood up so high and proud, you didn't know how good you had it did you?
Nothing beats a kickstand! High and proud, even in a cold wind!

See See why did he do that? I have seen a web site about circumcision that reminds us, it is mutilation, there is no need to remove it.
The ugly scar you describe is an example.
You know God designed the penis after his, yea be a fool.
I got mine at birth and the drunk left stitches an inch down the shaft. I am ashamed of mine.
Well you might justify it. BUT,I think you should consider clitoral castration, to see if it would make him like it better. I wonder what a vulva might look like with out a clitoris or labia?

The surgeon slipped and cut the muscle or blood vessels?
You relationship is facing serious problems (lack of sexual attraction)?
He fractured his penis.?
He phobic of sex after that operation?
He is worried about the time you are spending on the internet and not consulting with a urologist/surgeon?
Either way, get medical advice if it concerns you

The visual description you give sounds correct. I have never heard of anyone losing altitude because of circumcision. But, as men get older it happens, I can not even reach level anymore, but, still gets the job done just fine. Give your husband a good roll in the hay tonight, and just for the hell of it, give him another in the morning.

Circumcision DRASTICALLY alters the blood flow, that is what changed it. 1/3 of the skin IS the foreskin.

It might be some other reason. I agree with you, I prefer circumcised. I love the brown scar btw!
