Pay attention to these after circumcision surgery to recover faster!

When a man's foreskin is too long, sex life may become very uncomfortable, and a lot of dirt will accumulate in the foreskin, which can easily cause inflammation. If the foreskin is too long, the excess foreskin should be removed through circumcision. So what should men pay attention to after the operation?

1. Underwear should be loose

Wear loose underwear. After the operation, the doctor will usually place a gauze curtain on the perineum after dressing the wound to reduce the friction of the glans penis.

2. Rest in bed

After circumcision, you should rest in bed for 3-4 days and avoid standing or sitting for long periods of time. Some young people are too embarrassed to ask for leave after surgery and still insist on working. Due to poor local blood circulation, the glans penis swells directly, affecting the healing of the wound.

3. Mild edema is normal

It is normal for the glans penis to be slightly edematous within 3 to 4 days after circumcision. This is a reaction of the body caused by medication and surgery. Note that the swelling is pink at this time.

4. Pay attention to changing dressings

Do not wet the dressing during urination. If it is soaked by urine, it should be replaced as soon as possible. You can prepare 75% alcohol or 1:1000 new gentamicin cotton balls or isotonic saline cotton balls, wipe the area around the urethra after urination, keep the wound dressing clean, or soak the head of the penis in 1:5000 potassium permanganate solution in warm water every day.

5. Avoid penis erection

Within 3 to 4 days after the operation, take sedatives such as diazepam 2.5 mg before going to bed to prevent penile erection, pain or bleeding. Young people should be more careful because the nerve endings of the penis head, which has been covered for a long time, are very sensitive. Once exposed, it is easy to get an erection. Therefore, they should avoid watching pornographic books and watching TV. Lovers should temporarily avoid hugging, kissing, etc. to avoid sexual stimulation.
