Patient's question:
I have excessive foreskin, and during sexual intercourse with my wife, my sensitivity is not enough, and I have always been unable to fully enjoy it. After researching and consulting, I also asked a doctor. Finally, I mustered up the courage to go to the hospital to have my foreskin circumcised. It has been 20 days since the surgery, and there is some edema at the incision site. Sometimes it itches and hurts, but there is no inflammation.Doctor's answer:
Post- circumcision, swelling at the tip of the foreskin is very common. Additionally, the glans and the surrounding foreskin have been kept inside the excessive foreskin for a long time and are now exposed to clothing, making them very fragile and sensitive. It is normal to experience itching and mild swelling again. There is no need to worry about this. Swelling after circumcision usually subsides within about a week, so there is no need to be overly concerned.Excessive walking or prolonged standing may worsen this symptom, so it is important to avoid long periods of standing or walking and to practice good daily care. The diet should be light and avoid foods. After circumcision, as long as it is not infectious, scabs usually form within seven to ten days. However, for the wound to fully heal and tolerate external forces such as sexual activity, it may take about two weeks. However, general physical activity will not cause harm.
