Circumcision: Even when healthy, we aren't always aware of our erections, which occur many times while we're asleep. Watch out for increasing pain, redness, odor & discharge while waiting for healing. Discuss your erectile concerns w/your surgeon at post-op visit. In meantime, check out http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23361453 to allay your fears.
