Patient's question:
I recently don't know what's wrong with my lower body, it's very uncomfortable, and I'm not getting morning erections anymore. Do I need to be put to sleep for circumcision?Doctor's answer:
Before the circumcision surgery, anesthetic medication is injected around the nerves at the base of the penis to achieve pain relief during the procedure. Generally, the anesthetic effect lasts for 1 to 2 hours. After that, the anesthetic medication is absorbed and metabolized by the liver. By then, there is no anesthetic left in the penis, and all sensory functions and reflexes in the area have returned to normal.As everyone knows, phimosis and paraphimosis can cause significant harm to men, so it’s important to seek treatment as soon as possible. In daily life, attention should be paid to dietary habits—opting for a light diet and avoiding irritating foods. Additionally, regular follow-up visits may be necessary when needed.
