How long does it take for the foreskin to heal after circumcision?

Patient's question:

What kind of diseases can pediatric surgery treat, and which symptoms belong to pediatric internal medicine? How long does it take to recover after circumcision?

Doctor's answer:

Change the gauze frequently, use more iodine for disinfection, rest in bed for at least a month, and avoid spicy and irritating foods for three months. It is best to take anti-inflammatory medication for a few days or get anti-inflammatory injections.
A hernia is a weak spot or tear in the abdominal muscles, causing fat tissue or other organs like the intestines to protrude outward through this area, forming a noticeable bulge under the skin, accompanied by discomfort and pain. Symptoms are more pronounced during prolonged standing, urination, defecation, or lifting heavy objects. There is no medication to treat a hernia; the only option is surgical repair to fix the defect.
