Patient's question:
Doctor, I'd like to ask. It's been 7 days since my circumcision surgery. Can I put on the new bandage? I'm afraid it might open again when I get an erection at night. (The head of my penis has some peeling) Also, can I use iodine to disinfect the wound and the head of my penis?Doctor's answer:
This issue may occur one week after surgery, and it's perfectly fine. You should focus on resting. Currently, you need to see a doctor promptly for guidance. It's possible to try sterile treatment and everything will improve. For patients with phimosis, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should seek timely symptomatic treatment and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene.
