Patient's question:
After circumcising, there are some small abrasions locally. I received intravenous drips for 3 days, and then they stopped. Do I still need to continue? The glans has been red and swollen for 7 days. Can the stitches be removed?Doctor's answer:
After circumcising, there are some small peels on the local area, and the glans is red and swollen for 7 days. You can remove the stitches on schedule. It is recommended that after removing the stitches, you use sterile gauze internally for 2-3 days, always keep the local area clean, change underwear frequently, and strictly prohibit sexual activity within one month after the surgery. The condition of redness and swelling of the glans is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication treatment. Moreover, for male patients, it is important to actively seek medical treatment at professional and regular hospitals. Treatment should be considered based on the results of a thorough examination. Additionally, pay attention to a proper diet and avoid sexual activity.
