Patient's question:
It has been about a week since I had a circumcision surgery. A few days ago, the doctor instructed me to remove the gauze, but when I did, there was some bleeding. In the past few days, some dry scabs have fallen off. Is this part of the complete recovery process? The doctor prescribed me Cephalexin, and after taking it, I experienced some foot pain, which led to gout. Are there any other anti-inflammatory medications I can take?Doctor's answer:
Through your description, it is recommended that you pay attention to personal hygiene after the circumcision surgery. You can use povidone-iodine or salt water to clean daily. Avoid spicy, extremely cold, and greasy foods. Antibiotics are not recommended. The harm that male andrological diseases bring to patients is very great. Once you notice your symptoms, you should seek medical attention promptly. At the same time, pay more attention to self-care training, eat more fruits and vegetables, and avoid stimulating foods. It is hoped that male andrological patients can receive professional treatment.
