What can be done if there is some itching after circumcision surgery?

Patient's question:

Male, 20 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. They also mentioned that since my son is young, it would be very suitable for surgery. However, I'm not very familiar with this area, so I'd like to ask: What should I do if it itches after the phimosis surgery?

Doctor's answer:

What you mentioned may be a complication of the incision. The incision might have internal foreign bodies like wire, which haven't been fully tightly wrapped and absorbed. Additionally, scars can also cause pain. It's also normal for such symptoms to reappear after surgery, as the body has a strong absorption capacity, and it may take some time for complete absorption.
In daily life, patients should balance their nutritional intake, engage in more aerobic exercises to exercise their bodies, and maintain a cheerful mood to enhance their physical condition and accelerate the recovery process.
