Can inflammation after circumcision be treated with ointment alone?

Patient's question:

On November 1st, I had my foreskin circumcised and removed a pearl-like pustule. This morning, the wound from the pustule became inflamed. When changing the dressing, the doctor said there was yellow fluid leaking from the circumcision incision and administered a red light treatment drip. They re-bandaged it, but upon returning home, the pustule wound reappeared. Can I buy a topical ointment to apply to the pus-filled area myself?

Doctor's answer:

Hello: From the photo, it is indeed clear that there is an infection in your area. You can take some measures to address it, but be sure to maintain sterile operations. Avoid repeatedly rubbing the wound with two cotton balls, and then go to the hospital tomorrow for dedicated treatment. Men's health patients, in addition to symptomatic treatment, should also pay attention to maintaining deep sleep in daily life. Sufficient deep sleep is essential to help you recover from this condition as quickly as possible. I hope the above answer can assist you. Thank you!
