Patient's question:
I recently don't know why my lower body feels very uncomfortable, and I also don't have morning erections anymore. How many days does it take for the foreskin to heal after being circumcised?Doctor's answer:
Hello: Edema after circumcision is a relatively common symptom. The cause of edema is the interruption of blood and lymphatic vessels in the skin after circumcision, and the new circulation pathway has not yet been established, leading to poor return of blood and lymph. Therefore, the edema that appears locally after surgery generally recovers within 2-3 weeks, although it may last for more than 3 months in some cases. However, there is no need to panic, as the edema will naturally subside once the new circulation is established.
