Patient's question:
Hello! I will first consult about post-urethral fistula bleeding after circumcision. When touching the gauze, it gets stained but the blood never drips from the gauze. Should I go to the hospital immediately for treatment, or tomorrow?Doctor's answer:
Hello: The wound after circumcision surgery may have mild pain and swelling. It will heal completely within 7 to 10 days. Regular follow-up visits should be scheduled for wound healing. The wound should be kept clean and dry after surgery. Be careful not to get the wet while urinating. If the wound swells, hurts, or breaks, you can use local cold compresses and apply a gas-release ointment. If the skin breaks severely, seek immediate medical treatment at the hospital. In your case, we recommend proceeding with your upcoming visit. Tongji Hospital wishes you good health!
