Patient's question:
It's the fifth day after the circumcision surgery today. In the morning, I had an erection, and after urinating upon getting up, there was continuous bleeding from one spot at the sutured area. The bleeding stopped afterward, but there's still a slight bleeding when I move around.Doctor's answer:
Post- circumcision swelling and bleeding are relatively common and normal; there is no need to worry excessively.Recommendations: It is essential to avoid erections and refrain from intense physical activity. Rest is crucial for wound healing. Additionally, timely and regular dressing changes are necessary. The wound should heal without issues, typically taking about 2 weeks to recover fully, with complete recovery occurring around 1 month later. As most people know, phimosis can cause significant harm to men, so it is important to seek treatment as soon as possible. In daily life, dietary considerations should be noted—prioritize a light diet and avoid foods. Moreover, regular follow-up appointments may be necessary if needed.
