How long after the circumcision surgery can I take a bath?

Patient's question:

I plan to get a circumcision, how long can I take a bath after the circumcision?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, according to the situation you mentioned, it is best not to take a bath at this time. First, you just had surgery 10 days ago, and the time is still short, so the wound has not fully healed yet. Additionally, the absorbable suture has not completely absorbed. Therefore, it is not recommended to take a bath at this time to avoid affecting the wound healing or causing the wound to become infected.
Guidelines:
It is recommended to take a bath only after the absorbable suture has fully absorbed and the wound is healing well. Pay attention to local disinfection and hygiene. Avoid spicy and irritating foods, drink plenty of water, and do not consume alcohol. I hope my answer helps you.
