Is it comfortable after circumcision?

At present, circumcision is the only way to treat prepuce. If the prepuce is too long and is not circumcised, it may often cause glans inflammation, affect sexual intercourse, and even affect fertility in severe cases. It is recommended to go to a public tertiary hospital for examination and circumcision. Any surgery has risks. It is more reliable to go to a large hospital for circumcision. Some men are more worried about whether there will be any adverse effects after circumcision. Is it comfortable after circumcision? Let's take a look.

1. Do you feel comfortable after circumcision?

Currently, the only treatment for prepuce is circumcision. Any surgery has certain risks, so it is more reliable to go to a large tertiary hospital for surgery. If the postoperative care is not proper, it may cause infection and foreskin incarceration, making urination difficult.

2. Post-circumcision care

1. Before the surgical wound heals, you should return for regular follow-up examinations; the wound should be kept clean and dry after the operation, and be careful not to wet the gauze when urinating.

2. Wear loose underwear to reduce friction on 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. After the operation, sexual stimulation and sexual fantasies should be avoided as much as possible to prevent penile erection. Of course, the doctor will prescribe some drugs to prevent erection for the patient, but if sexual stimulation cannot be controlled, it is still possible that the wound will rupture due to erection and delay wound healing.

5. Do not wet the dressing when urinating. If it is soaked with urine, it should be replaced as soon as possible. Keep the wound dressing clean, or soak the head of the penis with relevant disinfectant products every day.

6. Keep the perineum clean after circumcision surgery. Some patients may feel discomfort in the foreskin after the operation. Scratching should be prohibited. The area should be wiped clean after urination and defecation to prevent local contamination.

3. Postoperative Diet

Pay attention to reasonable nutrition, try to diversify the food, eat more high-protein, multivitamin, low animal fat, easily digestible food and fresh fruits and vegetables, do not eat stale, spoiled or irritating things, eat less smoked, grilled, pickled, fried, and overly salty food, and match coarse and fine grains of staple food to ensure nutritional balance.
