Can the bandage be removed from the foreskin?

Patient's question:

Doctor, I have had my circumcision for more than three weeks, but I still have gauze wrapped now. Because a few days ago, I took off the gauze for a day, and after wearing loose pants for a day, my penis became a bit swollen. After I wrapped the gauze again, I felt more comfortable. Can I take off the gauze from my circumcision?

Doctor's answer:

Three weeks are completely sufficient. However, due to the long-term bandage wrapping, it may not be possible to remove it all at once now. It is recommended to remove it gradually, for example, 10 minutes today and 1 hour tomorrow, gradually restoring it. The condition of urological diseases is very serious, and it is advised that patients seek timely and symptomatic treatment. It is hoped that patients can follow the doctor's advice for symptomatic treatment. At the same time, pay attention to self-care training, proper diet, to avoid worsening the condition.
