Patient's question:
I had a circumcision surgery half a month ago, and now I'm a bit itchy and also a bit painful. Today, the wound has opened up. Besides that, the glans and the surgical ring are stuck together. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
It is recommended to go to the hospital to treat the wound. The degree of wound dehiscence needs to be assessed to determine if sutures are required. It is crucial to control erections in the near future. Additionally, dietary precautions should be followed: avoid spicy, irritating foods, alcohol, raw ginger, scallions, garlic, and seafood. Long wounds may cause itching and pain. The foreskin can be stabilized, but the treatment process is usually lengthy and prone to recurrence. Therefore, active cooperation with the doctor during treatment, appropriate medication use, and maintaining good lifestyle habits with a balanced diet are highly recommended.
