How long does it take to fully recover from circumcision?

Men's health is also a very important issue, especially men's reproductive health. There are many men with phimosis, which requires circumcision. This operation is a minor operation and the recovery time is relatively short. Generally, the stitches can be removed about a week after the operation, and it can be restored to normal in about a month. However, after the circumcision operation, you must pay attention to the hygiene of your sexual life.

After the operation, you should pay attention to the care of your body in all aspects, which will also have a certain effect on the recovery after the operation. It is better to rest in bed within one week after circumcision surgery, and avoid standing or sitting for a long time. Some young people are embarrassed to take leave after the operation and still insist on working. Due to the poor local blood circulation, the affected area is directly edematous, which affects the healing of the wound. It is better to wear looser clothes after circumcision surgery. Generally, after the operation, the doctor will place a gauze curtain on the perineum after bandaging the wound. The purpose is to reduce the friction of the wound. It is normal to have mild edema at the wound within 3 to 4 days after circumcision surgery. This is a body reaction caused by drugs and surgery. Note that the swelling is pink at this time. Do not wet the dressing when urinating. If it has been soaked with urine, it should be replaced as soon as possible. You can prepare 75% alcohol or 1:1000 chelate cotton balls or isotonic saline cotton balls, scrub the area around the urethra after urination, keep the wound dressing clean, or soak the glans penis in 1:5000 potassium permanganate solution in warm water every day.

Patients in the early and adult stages of the operation will experience swelling, pain and bleeding at the wound due to penile erection after surgery. If the bleeding is minor, only local cold compress and pressure can stop the bleeding. If the bleeding is severe, the patient should return to the hospital for treatment immediately.

While routinely using cephalosporin antibiotics to prevent infection, Kangfuxin liquid is applied externally once a day, which has a significant effect. Patients can resume their sexual life one month after the operation.
