Patient's question:
Six days after the circumcision, I received three days of intravenous drips, and the doctor told me to discharge and rest at home. But now I still have severe edema. Today, when I returned to the hospital's inpatient department, the doctor said there was no need for medication and that it would resolve on its own. I went to the outpatient department, where the doctor said I needed to receive anti-inflammatory injections for seven days. Two doctors performed the cauterization for me. What should I do? Whose advice should I follow regarding the inflammation after circumcision?Doctor's answer:
If after surgery, the inflammation cannot be resolved, it is not acceptable. According to common sense, recovery should be complete within one week. However, it is necessary to take medication on time and receive intravenous drips. But if after one week, the inflammation still cannot be resolved, then male partners need to pay attention, as it is likely caused by a secondary infection. It is important to promptly change underwear, eat some fresh fruits, and avoid spicy foods! Facing the harm of male genital diseases, we should actively adopt treatment measures and not avoid seeking medical attention. If male genital diseases do not improve with treatment, it is necessary to promptly change the treatment plan.
