Pay special attention to bleeding on the first day after surgery. Pay attention to the blood soaking of the gauze, and ask a doctor to check it if necessary. If the bleeding problem is not solved in time, it will cause adverse consequences such as large hematoma in the penis. Therefore, if postoperative bleeding occurs, the wound should be treated in time that night, and surgical exploration and bleeding should be performed if necessary. It is recommended not to wait until the next day.

Adult males should take estrogen drugs within the first five days after surgery and avoid external sensory stimulation by diverting attention to prevent problems such as penile erection pain and secondary bleeding.

The wound can usually be sutured on the 7th to 9th day after surgery. You can consult your doctor for the specific time of suture removal. The doctor will extend the suture removal time by 1-2 days if necessary based on the individual wound healing situation. If the surgery uses absorbable sutures or ligature rings, there is no need to remove the sutures. The specific type of sutures should be consulted with the doctor.

From the second day after the operation to within half a month, try to use underwear to hold up the penis at any time, so that the penis is upright (urethra opening upwards), except when urinating.
