What to eat to prevent balanitis edema

Patient's question:

Feeling very uncomfortable in the private area, that feeling can't be described, it affects work and life very much, and it's very annoying. I'm asking what kind of food can help to completely eliminate the foreskin edema. Please answer.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, after undergoing circumcision for excessive foreskin, the swelling in the glans area is likely due to poor drainage of local lymphatic tissue. Over time, collateral circulation will gradually form, and this condition will return to normal. Generally, it takes about 3 weeks to reach normal conditions, but it may also extend to around 3 months, depending on the individual.
During this period, it's important to maintain local hygiene, keeping the area clean and dry. Wear loose cotton underwear. If the swelling is significant, sexual activity should be strictly avoided for the time being. You can take Diosmin to help reduce swelling, which is a common treatment for male urological conditions.
