Patient's question:
Penile edema, want to get circumcised.Doctor's answer:
Circumcision is a minor surgery with low risk. The common postoperative complications include infection of the foreskin incision, recurrence of local redness and swelling, pain, or even inflammation. This is an elective surgery. If you have local foreskin edema or inflammation, it is best to wait until the edema subsides or the inflammation is suppressed before undergoing the procedure. Otherwise, it may easily lead to local infection and poor wound healing. Foreskin conditions tend to be recurrent, requiring long-term medication. Additionally, for male patients, it is important to seek professional and reputable medical advice promptly. Treatment should be considered based on thorough examination results.
