Patient's question:
Last night, on September 2nd, when I was about to take a bath, I felt itchy down there and rubbed it through my pants with my hand. It started to feel a bit comfortable, but when it was time to take a bath, like usual, I flipped my foreskin back to clean it and noticed some small wounds inside. I felt annoyed at the time and just rinsed it with water. When my hand touched those small wounds, it hurt. After finishing the bath, because of some swelling and pain, I didn’t dare to flip my foreskin back and just left the exposed head of my penis bare while putting on underwear.Just as I was about to take a nap, I suddenly pulled off my clothes and noticed that my foreskin was swollen very badly. I didn’t wear underwear and left the electric fan on to blow all night, thinking it was just a stomach issue and that it would be fine if I just blew it off. But when I woke up this morning, I found that it was even more swollen than last night. There wasn’t much pain when I urinated, but I was too afraid to go to the hospital for a check-up, so I looked up some information and consulted a doctor. If anyone knows, please quickly let me know. Thank you.
Doctor's answer:
Hypospadias is slightly contagious, so it is recommended to go to a regular specialized hospital for examination and treatment. When undergoing circumcision surgery, pay attention to personal hygiene. In addition to promptly treating foreskin redness and swelling, friends with the condition should maintain a positive attitude to face the disease. Only in this way can patients receive timely and appropriate treatment. At the same time, pay more attention to dietary care and monitor changes in your symptoms. Believe that this will surely drive away foreskin redness and swelling.
