Patient's question:
How long does it take for the meat threads to fall off after a circumcision, and how long can I take a bath?Doctor's answer:
Generally, after a circumcision, sterile absorbable suture is used for debridement, and it takes about twenty days for it to naturally fall off. About two weeks after the surgery, you can take a bath. You can wear underwear on the third day after the surgery and opt for looser underwear. Sexual activity should be avoided for at least one and a half months. For patients with phimosis, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications. If left untreated, it can affect overall health. Therefore, patients should seek timely and appropriate treatment, and in daily life, they should avoid overexertion and pay attention to personal hygiene.
