Post-foreskin surgery for ten days

Patient's question:

Ten days after the surgery... there's a little crack... what should I do about the crack? And for several days now, it's been itchy, but it's bearable. Is this normal... The wound isn't leaking, and I'm wrapping it with gauze myself. I'm using the kind of suture that doesn't need to be removed. Doctor, what should I do after a circumcision surgery ten days post-op?

Doctor's answer:

If the patient hasn't had the stitches removed, a small opening will gradually heal over time. Please rest assured about this. The itching is mainly due to the growth of skin, blood vessels, and nerves, so there's no need to worry. The most important thing right now is to prevent infection. If there is no redness, swelling, or discharge at the wound site, there is no need to be concerned. Normal wound care and sterilization are sufficient.
There are several treatment methods for urological conditions, but since each patient's condition is different, the treatment approach will vary. Therefore, it is essential for the patient to receive a prompt diagnosis so that the appropriate treatment can be administered.
