Patient's question:
I had my circumcision surgery in early October. Recently, I noticed three granular, hard lumps inside the foreskin near the corona of the penis, but there is no discomfort. I don't know if this is related to the circumcision surgery. Should I go to the hospital for a check-up?Doctor's answer:
Hello, a circumcision surgery is simple and safe as long as it is performed by an experienced urologist in a regular, public hospital. The surgery is quick, and the recovery is also fast, so there is no need to worry.Generally, post-surgery, you will need to change the dressing once a day for the first 3 days. After 3 days, you can switch to changing the dressing every other day. Around 10 days later, you won’t need gauze or dressing changes anymore. In about 2 weeks, the stitches will fall out on their own. If they don’t, you can ask the surgeon to remove them.
After about a month, you can resume sexual activity or masturbation. So, don’t worry and relax. Only after the surgery will it truly benefit you in the long run. Additionally, it benefits your partner as well, reducing the risk of infection.
