What issues should be paid attention to when changing dressings after circumcision?

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. Could you please tell me what problems need to be paid attention to when changing the dressing after a foreskin surgery?

Doctor's answer:

Postoperative wounds may have mild pain and bruising. Painkillers should be taken regularly, and the wound should heal within 7 to 10 days. Before the wound heals, regular follow-up visits should be scheduled for monitoring. The wound should be kept clean and dry after surgery. Be careful not to get the gauze wet during urination. As everyone knows, phimosis can cause significant harm to patients, so it's important to seek treatment as soon as possible. Pay attention to dietary issues in daily life, with a focus on a light diet and avoiding irritating foods. Regular follow-up visits may also be necessary when needed.
