How to care after circumcision

When men choose to have a circumcision, they must be aware of the precautions to avoid harm to their health. Men cannot have sex immediately after circumcision, otherwise it will cause genital infection, which is very harmful to their health. They should also choose liquid food. What are the care methods after circumcision? This is also something men don't know.

Post-circumcision care methods:

1. Before the surgical wound heals, you should return for regular follow-up examinations; the wound should be kept clean and dry after the operation, and be careful not to wet the gauze when urinating.

2. Wear loose underwear to reduce friction on the glans penis.

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

4. After the operation, sexual stimulation and sexual fantasies should be avoided as much as possible to prevent penile erection. Of course, the doctor will prescribe some drugs to prevent erection for the patient, but if sexual stimulation cannot be controlled, it is still possible that the wound will rupture due to erection and delay wound healing.

5. Do not wet the dressing when urinating. If it is soaked with urine, it should be replaced as soon as possible. Keep the wound dressing clean, or soak the head of the penis with relevant disinfectant products every day.

6. Keep the perineum clean after circumcision surgery. Some patients may feel discomfort in the foreskin after the operation. Scratching should be prohibited. The area should be wiped clean after urination and defecation to prevent local contamination.

The above is the care method after circumcision. Men should take care of themselves in this way after undergoing such an operation, so that their bodies can recover quickly, and there will be no abnormalities when the reproductive organs recover. If men feel uncomfortable after circumcision, they should also explain it so that the doctor can have some understanding and know what method to choose to improve it.
