What should I do if I can't urinate after a circumcision surgery?

Patient's question:

Seven days ago, I had a circumcision surgery because I couldn't urinate properly. When I did, there were drops on the ground, and later, white spots appeared. The treatment initially suggested prostatitis, but after a thorough examination, it was found that there was pus inside, which was due to excessive foreskin. It was decided to remove it together. I have been receiving intravenous fluids and electrotherapy for two days, with one tube inserted into the rectum, and red light treatment. Today is the seventh day, and I have changed the medication, but it hasn't been fully administered yet. Can I buy some anti-inflammatory medication myself?

Doctor's answer:

If you have already been on intravenous fluids for 7 days, you can start taking oral anti-inflammatory medication. If there is no significant inflammation, you may not need to continue with intravenous fluids. Prolonged intravenous treatment is not good for the normal flora either. Physical therapy can also be stopped. The condition of the foreskin tends to be recurrent, requiring long-term medication. Additionally, for male patients, it is important to seek treatment at a professional and reputable hospital promptly. Treatment should be considered based on thorough examination results. Furthermore, it is necessary to quit smoking and drinking, and pay attention to personal hygiene.
