Can I get my foreskin surgery stitches wet?

Patient's question:

I had my circumcision stitches removed on the fifth of last month. On the twelfth, I had sexual intercourse, and then I experienced swelling. Now, if I get wet, it gets quite large, but if I wear a ring for a while, it goes down. Today, I noticed some dirty stuff inside, and I asked the doctor a few times about what caused it. Is it an infectious complication? Is it serious? How long will it take to heal? Do I need to take medication? Thank you.

Doctor's answer:

After looking at the pictures you sent, I feel that your wound has healed quite well and does not require any medication. However, you must absolutely avoid sexual activity, as it will definitely cause further damage to the genital organs because they have not fully recovered. There are many treatment methods for male diseases, but since the condition of each patient is different, the treatment methods will also vary. Therefore, patients need to have timely and thorough examination and diagnosis to receive appropriate treatment.
