Patient's question:
Two days ago, I had a circumcision surgery at a private hospital. Every time I go, the doctor says I have too many erections at night, swelling, and inflammation. They keep me getting IV saline drips and changing dressings, saying I should be much better soon and suggesting red light therapy. They haven't prescribed much else. Is this a scam? Is it necessary to suggest oral medication? Are all these daily IV drips necessary?Doctor's answer:
A normal circumcision surgery costs only a few hundred yuan. In state-run hospitals, there's no need for daily intravenous drips. You must have encountered excessive medical practices at a private hospital. I strongly recommend you transfer to a public hospital for a re-examination and obtain the correct medical plan. Circumcision and phimosis conditions can easily recur, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it's important to promptly visit a professional and reputable hospital for diagnosis. Treatment should be considered based on thorough examination results. Additionally, refrain from sexual activity and maintain a positive mood. Finally, I wish all patients a speedy recovery.
