Patient's question:
After the hospital circumcision surgery, a few days have passed, and I noticed that it has swollen up, and it's a bit itchy. What's going on? Is it an infection, or did the surgery not succeed!Doctor's answer:
Your situation suggests actively treating the wound to prevent infection. You can use hydrogen peroxide to clean and povidone-iodine to disinfect, then bandage with sterile gauze. You must use sterile gauze to re-bandage the wound to protect it properly. Best wishes.As everyone knows, phimosis and paraphimosis can cause significant harm to patients, so it's important to seek treatment as soon as possible. In daily life, pay attention to dietary issues—stick to a light diet and avoid foods. Additionally, regular follow-up visits may be necessary if needed.
