Patient's question:
Yesterday I had a circumcision surgery, and I feel like the urethral opening is a bit larger than before. This morning when I got up, I noticed that the part which is larger than before seems a bit swollen. I would like to ask, what could be the reason for swelling after a circumcision surgery?Doctor's answer:
Circumcision surgery removes the excessive foreskin without performing surgery on the urethral meatus. The symptoms you mentioned are primarily considered to be caused by postoperative edema.2. After circumcision, it is important to appropriately control penile erection to prevent the incision from reopening. Medications that prevent erection and promote blood circulation, such as Premarin and Somatolactone, can be used. However, specific medications and dosage instructions should be consulted with the treating physician.
Additionally, for patients with urological conditions, diet and care during treatment are also crucial. Patients should pay close attention to rest and engage in appropriate activity to avoid unnecessary harm.
