Precautions after circumcision surgery

Phimosis is a common male disease in clinical medicine. Men with long foreskin are very susceptible to balanoposthitis, which can be transmitted to heterosexuals through sexual intercourse. Therefore, men with long foreskin must pay great attention to it, and immediate circumcision surgery is the best solution. So, what are the common problems after circumcision surgery?

1. For patients with long foreskin or circumcision, the surgery will not take more than half an hour and basically does not require hospitalization. You can go home after the surgery.

2. If the foreskin is long or there is circumcision surgery, there will be mild pain and bruising in the wound. You should take painkillers regularly and it will heal in about 7 to 10 days.

3. Patients with long foreskin or circumcision surgery must go to the hospital for regular follow-up to prevent infection.

4. The wound of prepuce laser resection should be kept clean and dry, and be careful not to wet the gauze when urinating.

5. The wound is sutured with digestible and absorbable sutures, so there is no need for surgical removal of sutures.

6. If the penis is erect, please use one hand to protect the wound and use the other hand to pinch the glans penis to prevent the wound from cracking.

7. If the foreskin is too long and the laser cutting wound is swollen, painful and bleeding, you can apply partial ice compress to promote blood circulation; if the bleeding is more severe, you should return to the hospital for medical treatment immediately.

8. During the surgical treatment stage, you must change your underwear yourself. This is very important because tissue fluid will seep out and dirty your underwear during the repair period.

9. After the operation, you should pay attention to avoid sexual excitement, otherwise the natural physiological needs will make you feel very upset! One month after the operation, the patient can resume his or her sexual life.

10. It is best to choose a reliable male specialist hospital to perform foreskin and circumcision surgery, because the doctor's technical quality of laser cutting foreskin and prepuce length will affect the postoperative appearance and the entire process of rehabilitation treatment.

Warm reminder: Men with foreskin that is too long should undergo circumcision as soon as possible. Generally, boys around 12 years old are the most suitable for circumcision. Pay attention to the above matters after the operation, try to rest more, and prevent the wound from infection. Once infected, go to the hospital outpatient clinic for secondary anti-inflammatory treatment immediately.
