Patient's question:
I've had my circumcision surgery for 17 days! The suture hasn't dissolved yet! Should I go to the hospital to have the stitches removed? There's no pain during erection, just a slight pain from the suture!Doctor's answer:
I'm happy to assist you. Based on your description, your condition can have the stitches removed. It is recommended that you have the stitches removed at a hospital. Pay attention to maintaining local cleanliness at all times to prevent infection. After the stitches are removed, use povidone-iodine for sterilization within 3 days after urination. For severe male genitourinary diseases, it is advised to seek medical attention promptly and follow the doctor's advice for timely treatment. Avoid using medication blindly, as this may worsen the condition. The above suggestions are for reference only. I hope the answer above can help you. Thank you.
