Patient's question:
What should I do if I don't go to the hospital to change the dressing after circumcision surgery? Can I take medicine for recovery? Does laser circumcision require suture removal?Doctor's answer:
After the foreskin surgery, it is necessary to go to the hospital to change the dressing. It involves wiping the wound with povidone-iodine a few times and then rebandaging it with clean, sterile gauze. The laser mentioned should refer to the use of an electrocautery for dressing. If you have undergone a circumcision surgery with suture for debridement, there will be a need for suture removal. If a cutting device was used, there is no need for suture removal. Whether or not you need suture removal should be consulted with the surgical doctor.In addition to treating male urological conditions, patients are advised to pay attention to their diet and maintain a cheerful mood in daily life to enhance their physical condition and slow down the recovery process.
