Patient's question:
How is phimosis considered in men? I would like to ask how phimosis is determined in men. It seems I might have phimosis, but I'm not sure. My glans is usually covered by the foreskin and cannot be exposed, but when my penis becomes erect, the glans becomes visible. I want to ask the experts if this is phimosis?Doctor's answer:
According to the surgery time, it has only been 6 days post-operation. Generally, the incision can only start to heal after one week. Based on the symptoms, there is slightly some discharge in the area of the frenulum of the prepuce, but it is not considered severe. Other areas are normal. It is recommended to sterilize and change the dressing irregularly according to the surgeon's advice. It is suggested that the stitches can be removed after the 14th. Currently, maintain local cleanliness, prevent the incision from getting wet, take a moderate amount of antibiotics to suppress inflammation, and consider infrared therapy if necessary. The patient should take oral medication promptly and avoid overexertion in daily life, while also paying attention to personal hygiene.
