What should I pay attention to after circumcision?

Although the male genitals are simple in structure, they can also have problems. Some men have found that their penis heads are always covered by foreskin during sex, which is very uncomfortable. So some male friends want to cut off their excess foreskin so that they can become more normal. After all, circumcision is also a surgery, and there are risks in surgery. If you accidentally cut too much or make a mistake, it will be very worthless.

Many male friends will have their foreskin circumcised. After the operation, there will definitely be pain and discomfort. So you also need to pay attention to some things after the operation, to prevent infection of the wound, and eat more light food to help the body recover.

1) You should rest in bed for 3-4 days after the operation and avoid standing or sitting for long periods of time. Some young people are too embarrassed to take leave after the operation and still insist on working. Due to poor local blood circulation, the glans penis will swell directly, affecting the healing of the wound.

2). Wear loose underwear. After the operation, the doctor will usually place a gauze curtain on the perineum after bandaging the wound to reduce the friction of 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) Do not wet the dressing when urinating. If it is soaked by urine, it should be replaced as soon as possible. You can prepare 75% alcohol or 1:1000 new germination cotton balls or isotonic saline cotton balls, wipe the area around the urethra after urinating, keep the wound dressing clean, or soak the head of the penis with 1:5000 potassium permanganate solution in warm water every day.

5) Take sedatives such as diazepam 2.5 mg before bedtime within 3-4 days after the operation 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.

6) Keep a stable mood within one week after the operation, refrain from sexual intercourse for 40 days, and try to avoid erection to prevent the incision from splitting, bleeding and infection. If an erection occurs, take a deep breath and come to the hospital for follow-up if necessary.

7) Use antibiotics as directed by the doctor within one week after surgery and change the dressing every other day. If the dressing is wet, come to the hospital immediately or change the dressing at a nearby hospital.

8). Do not eat spicy food within one week.

9) If swelling or bleeding persists after the operation, you need to go to the hospital for follow-up.

The above are the suggestions for everyone. If you want to get well soon, you should follow the above suggestions. Otherwise, if the wound does not heal well, it will not only affect your normal activities, but also your future sex life. Therefore, for your own health, you should rest as much as possible after circumcision and pay attention to hygiene and cleanliness.
