What can you eat after a circumcision?

Patient's question:

Recently, I don't know what's wrong, I've been feeling very uncomfortable downstairs, and I'm not getting morning erections anymore. What can I eat after a circumcision?

Doctor's answer:

After the circumcision surgery, it is important to urinate promptly to prevent urinary retention. Keep the perineal area clean. Some patients may experience discomfort in the local area after the surgery and should avoid scratching. Both before and after urination and defecation, ensure the area is thoroughly cleaned to prevent local contamination. If the penis becomes erect, use one hand to protect the wound while firmly pinching the glans with the other hand to allow the penis to naturally subside, preventing the wound from tearing open. If the wound swells, aches, or bleeds, apply local cold compresses and pressure to stop the bleeding. In case of severe bleeding, seek immediate medical attention by returning to the hospital.
