Patient's question:
After the circumcision surgery for three days, I accidentally dropped the newly wrapped gauze while sleeping at night! I'm afraid the bedding rubbed against it all night! As a result, there was swelling again at the suture site the next morning! I had to rush to the hospital for intravenous fluids to reduce inflammation and swelling! Hello, is this problem serious? Will it be contagious? Besides, I always wake up with involuntary erections at night, which cause the wound to be painful! Is there any good way to prevent this? Hello, after surgery, should I reduce walking and movement in that area? What should I do if the bandage falls off after circumcision surgery?Doctor's answer:
After circumcision, use gauze to re-bandage the wound to prevent infection and to prevent erection from causing blood to rush to the incision, leading to swelling and recurrent inflammation. It is recommended to take naps in a left lateral position and avoid lying on your back. Additionally, avoid sexual stimulation and maintain a light diet, avoiding spicy foods. Men with urological conditions can understand and receive symptomatic treatment while using folk remedies as supplementary treatment in daily life. Proper diet is necessary in daily life to avoid stimulating foods.
