Post-circumcision care, these actions must be remembered

After circumcision, men must understand the relevant care, such as keeping the genitals clean, because it is very easy to get infected at this time. Also, they must pay attention to their living habits. There are many other things to pay attention to.

1. Take a shower the night before the operation. It is best to clean the foreskin and remove the pubic hair around the perineum. Ensure adequate rest.

2. The surgery is performed under local anesthesia. You will feel a little pain during the anesthesia, but the pain will disappear after the anesthesia takes effect. You will feel pain again when the anesthesia wears off.

3. There will be pain in the incision after the operation. The pain will be more severe on the day after the operation and then gradually ease. The pain varies from person to person. Some people feel mild pain, but some still feel severe pain. You can take painkillers according to the doctor's instructions. Oral painkillers are not recommended for mild pain.

4. Swelling will occur around the incision after surgery, which is unsightly. Most cases will gradually subside, but a few cases may take a long time to completely subside.

5. Temporary urination abnormalities may occur after the operation, such as bifurcated urine, which usually recover on their own.

6. There will be a little bleeding from the incision after the operation, which will generally stop on its own. A few people may bleed more. At this time, it is best to hold the bandage with a little force and seek medical attention immediately;

7. After the operation, oral anti-inflammatory treatment can be taken according to the situation, and the incision gauze should be replaced regularly;

8. Avoid non-physiological penile erection as much as possible after the operation. Frequent erection will not only cause incision pain, but also cause serious consequences such as incision tearing and bleeding.

9. After removing the gauze, the incision needs to be kept dry and clean at all times. It can be cleaned daily with disinfectant and dried with a hair dryer.

10. If you take a shower after the operation, you need to protect the incision and avoid getting it wet. Otherwise, you should dry it with a hair dryer or replace the gauze in time. Generally, you can take a shower in about 10 days.

11. It is recommended to have sex more than one month after surgery, and to wear a condom during the first sex;

12. Avoid strenuous exercise and heavy physical labor within 1 week after surgery, avoid alcohol and spicy food within 1 month after surgery, drink plenty of water and urinate frequently;

13. Follow the doctor's instructions and go for regular checkups.
