How long after circumcision surgery can I take a shower?

Long foreskin can cause many problems for men, which have adverse effects on male sexual function, reproductive ability and hygiene and health. Surgery can effectively solve this problem and effectively prevent inflammation and symptoms in the male reproductive area. So, how long can you take a bath after circumcision surgery?

It usually takes a week. The recovery time after circumcision surgery varies for men, but generally the stitches can be removed in about a week. If the wound heals well, you can take a shower. If the wound heals poorly, don't rush to take a shower, but wait a few more days. If you have to let the wound come into contact with moisture, it may cause infection.

After circumcision surgery, men need to pay attention to some issues. Pay attention to the condition of the wound in daily life, keep it dry, and be careful not to let the urine wet the gauze when urinating. If erection occurs during the recovery period of surgery, men should maintain the wound, let the erection disappear as soon as possible, and try to avoid touching things that may cause sexual excitement and erection.

If the unhealed wound bleeds or swells due to external force or erection, ice can be used to reduce the bleeding. If the bleeding is severe, go to the hospital immediately. Within three months after circumcision surgery, men should control their sexual intercourse, as it may cause the wound to rupture, leading to bleeding and infection. After the surgery, you should also pay attention to a light diet and ensure rest.

It usually takes a week to remove the stitches from a circumcision surgery wound. Before the stitches are removed, we try to keep the wound away from water as much as possible. Afterwards, the wound should be partially cleaned and the dressing changed to keep the wound dry, which is beneficial to the healing of the wound.

After the stitches are removed, the wound healing is not yet very firm, so we don't need to touch water at this time. It's best not to take a bath within two weeks. But it doesn't mean that you can't take a bath because the wound doesn't need to touch water. You can use a pure cotton towel to wipe the wound. A full body pure cotton towel bath can also clean the skin and reduce the residual stains.
