Patient's question:
Recently, I noticed mild redness and swelling of the penis foreskin and glans, and significant edema and severe itching of the foreskin. I would like to ask what are the potential harms of prolonged foreskin edema?Doctor's answer:
So now you need to understand that this foreskin edema is due to the fact that you have undergone a circumcision surgery. If the situation is as I mentioned above, then this foreskin edema is within the normal range. Generally, after this surgery, it takes more than a month for the foreskin edema to gradually subside. The condition of the foreskin is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. Moreover, for male patients, it is necessary to seek medical attention at a professional and reputable hospital. Treatment should be considered based on the results of a thorough examination. Additionally, it is important to abstain from sexual activity and maintain a positive mood. Finally, I wish all patients a speedy recovery.
