It is difficult to know whether your penis head is actually swelling, or if it is merely expanding to its normal size once you get the foreskin pulled back off of it.
If the foreskin itself is not swelling,or changing color, indicating a constriction of propere blood flow, it may be ok to leave it retracted. But don't go to sleep with it like that. Keep an eye for any problem that may be getting worse.
If all is well, it sounds like you have only a mild case of paraphimosis,which is not necessarily a bad thing. It may even be a good thing.
I pulled this message from another forum:
Re: Asian Foreskin Story
I guess they don't see (circumcision) as necessary. For
them it is normal that the glans will be uncovered
after puberty, so what's the fuss? And if it's not,
that's when they think about circumcision.
A close acquaintance of mine is south-east asian
by origin and he told me that he retracted his
foreskin just once - about age 12 - and that's where
it stayed ever since. To him that's just the natural
thing to do. Is it paraphimosis? I don't know and
never will - we're both married family men.

Note: My brother, cousin and I, and others we have met
or heard about later on, did the same thing. But some
of us think it would be better to start earlier, just
as soon as the foreskin is readily retractable.
Mothers, if for whatever reason you are going to delay
or avoid circumcision for your son, consider this cost-
less, painless and totally reversable alternative which
provides all of the same benefits.
Do him an important favor and help him get his foreskin
pulled back off the penis head at the earliest possible
age.
