What is the cause of edema of the glans after circumcision?

Foreskin is too long is a problem that many men will encounter. The harm it causes is very serious. In addition to causing infection, it will lead to sexual dysfunction. The usual solution is circumcision. Although the effect is very good, many men have the problem of glans edema and are very concerned about the cause. So, what is the cause of glans edema after circumcision? Let's take a detailed look at the cause below.

Edema after circumcision is a common symptom. Mild edema of the glans penis within 3 to 4 days after surgery is normal, but there are individual differences. The reason for edema is that after circumcision, the blood circulation in the frenulum of the foreskin is relatively abundant. After the operation, the blood vessels and lymphatic vessels in the skin are cut off, and a new return path is established, resulting in poor return, which takes some time. Therefore, local edema after surgery can generally be recovered in 2-3 weeks, and some can last for more than 3 months, but there is no need to panic. After the new circulation is formed, the swelling will naturally subside. If the edema persists for a long time, you should go to the hospital for a follow-up examination to prevent secondary infection. The edema can also be effectively eliminated through treatment.

Things to note after circumcision surgery: 1. You can have sexual intercourse one month after the surgery.

2 Do not eat spicy food or irritating foods within two weeks, and do not eat foods that are more irritating, such as chicken, duck, beef, lamb and seafood.

3. Be careful to keep the wound dry and avoid contact with water.

4 If you experience any abnormal symptoms, go to the hospital for a check-up immediately.

Edema of the glans penis will certainly make people very nervous, but it is a relatively normal situation after circumcision. As long as the usual care measures are taken, it can be recovered as soon as possible. Male patients do not need to worry at all.
