Patient's question:
I have been postoperative for 20 days, and the stitches were removed just a day ago, in two stages. Today, I wanted to take a bath, but when I picked up the gauze, a little bit of blood came out. I want to know if it's okay to take a bath 20 days after a circumcision surgery?Doctor's answer:
It is recommended not to take a bath, but you can wipe it with a towel. The wound hasn't healed yet after the stitches were removed, and it will take a few more days before it can be fully healed, otherwise it may get infected. Sterilizing ointment should be applied.For patients with urological diseases, in addition to active treatment, it is necessary to maintain a proper diet in daily life to digest nutrients. In terms of daily routines, adequate sleep, appropriate exercise, and reasonable cold and heat training are required.
