Patient's question:
I have been circumcised for 23 days, and the stitches haven't dissolved yet. Now I change the gauze by myself every day. Is it still necessary for me to wrap the gauze?Doctor's answer:
Based on your situation described above, it has been 23 days since you had your circumcision, and the stitches have not yet dissolved. They should be removed. Please do so soon. Since the stitches have not dissolved, you cannot go swimming, as it is easy to get infected otherwise. Good luck. For serious male genitourinary conditions, it is recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible and follow the doctor's advice for early treatment. Avoid blindly relying on advertisements for medication, as this may worsen the condition.
