Do circumcision surgeries require stitches removal?

Many men have a problem of foreskin being too long. Foreskin being too long is not a good thing for men. It will bring many adverse effects to men, such as pain during sexual intercourse, easy accumulation of bacteria and diseases, etc. When facing foreskin being too long, people will deal with it through surgery. Many people have doubts about whether sutures need to be removed after circumcision. Let's introduce it in detail below.

Generally, the stitches need to be removed after circumcision. After circumcision, there will be wounds, and the gauze bandage will definitely cause discomfort when urinating. Therefore, after urinating, the remaining urine should be wiped with sanitary paper or dry cloth, and the gauze should be kept clean and dry to avoid infection. If the gauze is wet, pay attention to local hygiene and avoid spicy and irritating foods.

Post-circumcision care measures are as follows:

1. If the dressing is stained with blood or dripping with blood, or even the penis is swollen, it means that the incision is bleeding and you need to see a doctor immediately;

2. If the glans penis is swollen and dark purple, loosen the dressing, bandage it appropriately, and seek medical attention immediately;

3. Take oral antibiotics to prevent infection, change the dressing on time, and observe the healing of the incision;

4. If there is postoperative incision pain, take oral analgesics as appropriate;

5. Erection at night after surgery, oral sedatives to improve sleep;

6. Rest for three days after the operation and wear loose clothes. After three days, you can go back to work and live normally, and wear slightly tighter clothes to facilitate lymphatic and blood return and reduce foreskin edema.

7. You can remove the dressing and take a shower three days after the operation. After showering, blow dry the incision and keep it dry.

How to take care of the body after circumcision surgery to help the body recover?

1. Avoid getting the surgical site wet within seven days after surgery. The time and precautions for bathing after surgery should be strictly arranged by the doctor. Do not touch the genitals when bathing, do not get the wound dressing wet, and protect the wound. Pay attention to the cleanliness and hygiene of the wound.

2. Do not watch TV or read books with strong sensory stimulation within one month after the operation. Lovers should also have sex after one month to prevent erection, which will tear the wound and delay the recovery time of the wound. If an erection occurs, take a deep breath and come to the hospital for follow-up if necessary.

3. Prevent wound cracking: You should rest in bed within 3-4 days after circumcision surgery and avoid standing or sitting for long periods of time. Young people should pay special attention to this. It is normal to have slight edema within these three to four days, but if the edema is too severe, you should go to the hospital for examination as soon as possible.
