Purple glans after circumcision

Any surgery needs postoperative repair, even if it is a minor minimally invasive surgery. Most men will undergo circumcision surgery. Only men with excessive foreskin need circumcision surgery. Surgery generally does not leave sequelae and has no risks, but the postoperative recovery stage is very important. There are many things to pay attention to. Some people have purple glans after surgery. Is this normal?

There are many medical definitions of prepuce sufficiency, and there are also many explanations on the Internet. In the era of knowledge economy, it is inevitable that there is a suspicion of redundant elaboration. What's more, some experts can even cite classics to define prepuce sufficiency, which is unnecessary! In layman's terms, the penis is wrapped in a flaccid state, which is not conducive to smooth urination and breeds smegma. These situations can be considered as prepuce sufficiency. Don't consider what happens in an erect state. It is unnecessary from a practical point of view. So when you are sure that your prepuce is too long, you should consider whether to have surgery. This point must be made clear: the role of circumcision surgery is to provide a better sanitary environment for the genitals. Some of the others advocate reducing the sensitivity of the glans penis and making you last longer, which is all nonsense! The principle can be roughly explained: the neurons are on the glans penis, and when stimulated, they are reflected to the cranial nerves, so the brain will still receive signals. As long as the glans penis nerves exist, there will be no delay effect. The purpose of the surgery is very important. If it is just for health, then surgery can be considered. Of course, pay attention to cleaning and maintain hygiene. If there is no situation where surgery is necessary (such as accompanied by glans inflammation, foreskin incarceration, etc.), it is also scientific not to do circumcision surgery. If someone tells you that this surgery is beneficial for the treatment of premature ejaculation, it is pure nonsense, don't be fooled.

Since a part of the skin is removed, some blood vessels will naturally be blocked, causing congestion and making some areas purple. It's okay. Try not to get an erection and it will be absorbed slowly.

Get more rest: After a circumcision, the most important thing is to get more rest. Men must take at least 2-3 days of rest after the operation. Rest is very important for postoperative recovery. Men must not go without rest because of work or other reasons.

Apply cold compress when edema occurs: Generally, the wound area will be slightly swollen after circumcision surgery. If it is only slightly swollen, don’t worry, it is completely normal. However, if the edema is more serious or there is congestion, you can apply cold compress, which can generally help relieve the congestion symptoms to a certain extent. If the situation has not improved or has worsened,

It is recommended to review.

Take painkillers when you feel pain: Generally, doctors will prescribe some painkillers to patients after circumcision surgery. You should take them on time according to the doctor's instructions after the surgery. Generally, the pain can be effectively relieved. If it is still very painful, you can see a doctor again, but you cannot increase the dosage of the medicine privately.

Prevent infection: After circumcision surgery, men need to use antibiotics appropriately to prevent infection. If a wound infection occurs after surgery, not only will the patient be miserable, but it will also be very troublesome to deal with. If it is serious, it may also affect the effect of the surgery.
