Is cryotherapy useful after circumcision?

Patient's question:

More than three months have passed since my circumcision surgery, and the swelling hasn't completely subsided yet. Is there any way to reduce the swelling? Will cold compress be effective?

Doctor's answer:

Postoperative edema is relatively common and can be resolved by taking medication. One of my patients also experienced edema for a month, but it improved after taking the medication. You can also use hot water to soak it. This issue is a result of poor venous blood flow, especially around the ligament area. In addition to symptomatic treatment, patients with male health issues should also pay attention to maintaining a good mood in daily life, as a positive mood is very helpful for the complete recovery of the disease. I hope the above answer can help you. Thank you!
