Patient's question:
I have some whitehead-like particles on my glans, and it's very red and wrinkled. Lately, when I urinate, there's always white discharge coming out, and it's itchy. I went to see a doctor and they said it's balanitis. Please ask: How much does it cost to treat foreskin edema?Doctor's answer:
Circumcision surgery, postoperative edema and exudation can be manifestations within the first three to five days. Of course, if the swelling is slight, it is a normal postoperative response, which can be improved through dressing changes and anti-inflammatory measures to promote complete recovery. However, if the swelling is significant and the glans is darkened, it is necessary to seek immediate medical attention for reexamination to rule out active skin breakdown. Circumcision-related conditions can be prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is important to actively seek treatment at professional and reputable hospitals, and treatment should be considered based on examination results. Additionally, proper diet and abstinence from sexual activity should be maintained. Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
