What Causes Itching, Redness And Bruising After Circumcision?

Yes, I just got circumcised about a week ago, and still have some redness, bruising and swelling...I just wanted to know if itching around the gland area is normal or not and to see what i can do abot it, because its really tempting to itch but somewhat painful if i do.
