What to do if the circumcision wound becomes festering?

If people suddenly experience festering of the circumcision wound during the operation, they need to rest in bed immediately. Most of the time, they need to rest for about one or two days. During this period, they should not do any work or walk around casually to avoid hurting the wound. Also, after the operation, they should pay attention to taking some antibiotics, which can prevent patients from having serious pain symptoms.

1. It is best to rest for 1-2 days after the operation. You can rest in bed, surf the Internet or read books, etc. Try to move less to prevent postoperative bleeding.

2. Try to avoid thinking about or touching pornography, Internet pictures and videos after the operation. This is because contact with these things will cause the penis to become erect, which can easily cause postoperative bleeding.

3. Generally, it should be changed every 3 days. After about three days, normal activities will generally be fine.

4. In addition to antibiotics, you should also take medications to prevent erection and relieve pain after surgery.

5. You may experience some discomfort in the glans penis after the operation, which is normal. Generally, this feeling will gradually disappear after about a week.

6. The operation takes about 15 to 25 minutes and does not require hospitalization.

7. There will be slight pain and bruising at the wound after the operation. You should take painkillers regularly. It will heal in about 7 to 10 days.

8. Before the wound heals, you should return for regular follow-up examinations.

9. The wound should be kept clean and dry after the operation, and be careful not to wet the gauze when urinating.

10. The wound is sutured with absorbable sutures, so there is no need to remove the sutures.

11. If the penis is erect, please protect the wound with one hand and pinch the glans with the other hand to allow the penis to retract naturally to avoid the wound from splitting.

12. If the wound is swollen, painful and bleeding, you can apply local cold compress and pressure to stop the bleeding; if the bleeding is severe, you should return to the hospital for treatment immediately.

13. Prepare a few extra pairs of underwear for replacement (or buy disposable underwear), because tissue fluid may seep out and dirty the underwear during the recovery period.

14. It is best to avoid sexual desire during the recovery period, otherwise the natural physiological reaction will make you suffer! Patients can resume their sexual life one month after the operation.

15. Carefully choose a qualified doctor to perform the surgery, because the doctor's skills will affect the postoperative appearance and recovery process. For minor surgeries on critical parts, carefully choose a good doctor!

16. After the operation, try not to get the dressing wet. If it gets wet accidentally during urination, be sure to change it as soon as possible. In normal times, wear loose underwear to reduce friction.

17. You should rest in bed within 3-4 days after the circumcision surgery and avoid standing or sitting for long periods of time as much as possible. You can take certain sedative measures under the guidance of a doctor to prevent penile erection.
