Patient's question:
It has been 18 days since I had my foreskin circumcised. The wound doesn't hurt anymore. However, the absorbable suture hasn't completely fallen off yet. Can I take a bath now? Besides the first 7 days, what should I do if the wound doesn't hurt anymore but the suture hasn't fallen off?Doctor's answer:
Generally, stitches can be removed half a month after a circumcision surgery. You can remove the stitches yourself, take baths, pay attention to local hygiene, keep the area dry and breathable, and change underwear frequently. In the near two months after the surgery, avoid contact with the area. In addition to seeking timely medical treatment for urological diseases, friends should always maintain a positive attitude to face the illness. Only in this way can the patient's immunity and the belief to fight the disease be reduced. At the same time, it is important to pay attention to dietary care, with light food as the foundation, avoiding stimulating and cold food, believing that this will surely drive urological diseases away.
