Patient's question:
Circumcision surgery, twenty-five days post-operation. Today, I suddenly noticed that one of the needle sites hasn't healed properly. I used povidone-iodine to clean it today, and it hurts a bit. Is it okay? Do I still need to go get stitches? The thread on top hasn't fallen off yet!Doctor's answer:
The situation you described does not require further stitching; iodophor sterilization is sufficient. It is recommended to remove the suture material. When using iodophor to sterilize the wound, maintain local dryness to prevent infection, and the wound can heal on its own. The condition of urological diseases is very serious, and it is advisable for patients to seek timely symptomatic treatment. It is hoped that patients can follow the doctor's advice for symptomatic treatment. At the same time, pay attention to self-care training, maintain a proper diet, and avoid worsening the condition.
