Patient's question:
Male, 19 years old, my son seems to have a bit of phimosis. My friend said that if the foreskin is too long, it can cause inflammation, and it might even lead to impotence and premature ejaculation. He also said that since my son is young now, it's very suitable for surgery. However, I'm not very familiar with this area, so I'd like to ask: How should one handle the situation after a phimosis surgery?Doctor's answer:
After the circumcision surgery, physical therapy is not required. Oral anti-inflammatory medication is needed to prevent infection. Change the dressing every three days, use povidone-iodine for sterilization, and re-bandage with sterile gauze. Maintain a light diet, eat less spicy and irritating foods, and avoid sexual stimulation to enhance erection. It will gradually improve.Additionally, in daily life, patients should balance their nutritional intake, engage in aerobic exercises to strengthen the body, and maintain a positive mood to enhance physical fitness and accelerate recovery.
