Can the foreskin heal after half a month of circumcision?

Patient's question:

Can circumcision be healed in half a month? I want to get it done, but I have phimosis and need to handle some business. The boss won't let me take a long time off.

Doctor's answer:

In this case, considering circumcision as a common urological surgery, phimosis can be considered for surgical treatment. Generally, recovery takes about half a month. It is recommended to avoid spicy foods, maintain a light diet to enhance nutrition, pay attention to the cleanliness of the foreskin and glans, and seek a thorough examination in the urology department of a local regular general hospital. If necessary, surgical treatment for phimosis may be required. Postoperative anti-inflammatory drugs should be used, and stitches are usually removed after about a week for recovery.
For patients with urological conditions, in addition to symptomatic treatment, it is also necessary to pay attention to maintaining a good mood in daily life, as a positive attitude is very helpful for recovery.
