How many days do I need to take anti-inflammatory injections after circumcision?

After circumcision, you can take anti-inflammatory injections for 3 to 5 days, which can effectively prevent infection. Once infection occurs, it is harmful to men. Infection is not conducive to recovery after circumcision. You should pay attention to this aspect. After the operation, you should strengthen care and pay attention to the hygiene of the private parts, which can effectively prevent infection after circumcision.

Circumcision Procedure

Cleaning and disinfection

Wash the area with soapy water and saline, and disinfect with 1:1000 chelidonide. For those with phimosis, connect the syringe to the venous incision needle and inject chelidonide into the foreskin sac for disinfection.

Separation of adhesion

For patients with narrow foreskin opening and adhesion between foreskin and glans penis, first use hemostats to dilate the foreskin opening, then use two hemostats to clamp the middle part of the dorsal edge (the two clamps are 0.2cm apart). Use a grooved probe to separate the adhesion until the glans penis is completely separated from the foreskin. Then use sterile saline to clean the foreskin sac and glans penis.

Design cutout

Use a hemostatic forceps to clamp the frenulum of the foreskin to lift the foreskin. Use the tip of the knife to make a cut in the outer plate of the foreskin 0.5 cm distal to the edge of the coronal sulcus to prepare for the circumcision incision, and avoid over-cutting.

Dorsal incision

Use scissors to cut the inner and outer layers of the foreskin along the probe groove. The inner layer of the foreskin should also be cut to about 0.5 cm away from the edge of the coronal sulcus.

Circumcision

Align the inner and outer plates of the foreskin, pull outwards and open the hemostats clamped on the back of the foreskin and the frenulum, and then recheck whether the incision of the outer plate of the foreskin is appropriate as the circumcision incision. If appropriate, use curved scissors to cut off the right side skin flap along the incision about 0.5cm away from the coronal sulcus, and then cut the left side. The inner and outer plates at the frenulum of the foreskin can be left intact, or some can be retained.

Stop bleeding

Retract the penis skin upwards to reveal the bleeding point and then stop the bleeding. Pay special attention to ligating the superficial dorsal penile vein in the middle of the dorsal side of the penis.

Sewing

Use fine silk thread to suture one stitch each on the back, abdomen, left and right sides of the circular incision. Do not tie it too tightly to avoid damaging the skin when the tissue is edematous. Do not cut the suture short and save it for fixing the dressing. Then suture 1 to 2 stitches between every two sutures. The suture needle should be passed close to the incision edge.

Bandaging

Place a strip of Vaseline gauze (with the raw edges folded inside) around the foreskin incision, secure it with long sutures, and then bandage it with several layers of gauze.
