What happens during the recovery period after circumcision

Patient's question:

After the circumcision surgery, I have fully recovered. It has been ten days today, and I noticed some yellow discharge from the urethral meatus. I'm not sure if it's an infection. What oral anti-inflammatory medication should I take? Thank you.

Doctor's answer:

Circumcision surgery is generally an outpatient minor procedure, and there is usually no need for intravenous fluids after the surgery. The circumcision typically does not require suture removal, as the sutures usually fall out within about three weeks. If they fall out, they cannot be removed again. Since it has been ten days, there is no need for re-bandaging. Currently, there is no need to take antibiotics, and there is no risk of infection. Male reproductive health issues can pose significant harm to patients. Once symptoms are detected, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. Additionally, attention should be paid to dietary habits, with a focus on a light diet. It is hoped that male reproductive health patients can receive professional treatment.
