Patient's question:
I had a circumcision, and the wound healed very well. 12 days later, I accidentally pulled back the foreskin and there was a crack about 0.8 millimeters long. Is there a problem?Doctor's answer:
In your case, it's like this. If your incision is slightly split by accident, it's not a big deal. As long as you keep the area dry and clean, it can heal on its own within three days. However, it takes about two weeks to fully heal. Therefore, it's not necessary to treat it. You can just use povidone-iodine to frequently clean the split area. There's nothing else to worry about. Don't be anxious. Actually, getting a urological disease isn't something to be afraid of. Patients should believe they can overcome the illness. As long as symptoms are detected early and treated accordingly, the chances of stabilizing the condition and recovering are very high.
