Patient's question:
Approximately twenty days. The circumcision surgery was done about a month ago. I feel very sad. Hello, is this a sexually transmitted disease? After the stitches are removed from the circumcision surgery, there is a red and peeling glans penis, and occasionally it itches. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Within one week after circumcision, it is best to rest in bed to prevent prolonged standing or sitting. Some young people may feel embarrassed to take time off after the surgery and continue with their training, leading to poor local blood circulation. This can directly cause the glans to swell into a purple eggplant-like appearance, affecting wound healing.For the first 3 to 4 days after the surgery, take medication as prescribed before bed to prevent an erection, which may cause pain or skin tearing. Finally, follow your doctor's instructions for changing the dressing and using anti-inflammatory medication. Avoid going to dirty or dusty places. If any adverse reactions occur, it is recommended to seek medical attention promptly.
For severe male urological conditions, it is advised to seek immediate medical attention. Follow the doctor's advice for prompt treatment and avoid changing medications arbitrarily, as this may have the opposite effect.
