Patient's question:
Male, 28 years old, I found that my glans cannot be exposed every time I get an erection. Is this condition considered phimosis? I heard that phimosis can be quite harmful. Please ask: Why is there swelling after the phimosis surgery?Doctor's answer:
Currently, it has been more than ten days since the circumcision surgery, and there is still some local edema, which is possible. Since the tissue in this area is relatively loose, the simple swelling is not a major issue. You can consider taking anti-edema medications such as Diosmin tablets, among others. Additionally, the diet should avoid spicy and irritating foods. Besides that, it is important to maintain cleanliness and hygiene in the affected area at all times. Lastly, in daily life, it is important to maintain a good mood, as a positive attitude is very helpful for the recovery of the condition.
