Patient's question:
After 13 days of circumcision, can the wound be left without gauze if it's about one centimeter long? Will the wound tear open if an erection occurs without gauze? What should I do if there's still about one centimeter of wound after 13 days of circumcision?Doctor's answer:
If you have already undergone a circumcision surgery for thirteen days, it is now possible to no longer use gauze. Although your current wound is about one centimeter long, the healing ability of the skin on the penis is very strong, so you do not need to worry about the wound cracking. If my advice is that your current condition allows you to stop using gauze, it will absolutely not have a significant impact on the wound. You can continue with your normal life, and there is no major issue.Additionally, for patients with urological conditions during the treatment period, their dietary status and care are also very important. Patients must ensure adequate vitamin intake, prevent stomach issues, and maintain a light diet to avoid unnecessary harm.
