Patient's question:
Doctor, the third day after the preputial resection and circumcision for phimosis, there is a yellow plaque at the connection between the glans and the foreskin. Is it serious or normal? (Male, 14 years old)Doctor's answer:
You are currently in the post-removal of phimosis, with local discharge,. This is a normal phenomenon. Since the foreskin and glans have already started to separate, the discharge has returned. Now, pay attention to maintaining cleanliness and hygiene in the perineal area. Do not worry. Apply topical erythromycin ointment and take anti-inflammatory medication orally. It will gradually form a scab and fall off. For phimosis patients, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications. If left untreated, it can affect your health. Therefore, patients should take medication promptly and avoid overexertion in daily life, paying attention to personal hygiene.
