Five days after the circumcision surgery, there was yellow discharge from the frenulum suture.

Patient's question:

I am five days post-foreskin surgery. Around 4:00 PM today, there's a drop of yellow fluid leaking from the frenulum suture every few minutes. Is this normal, and I also haven't felt any discomfort? The fluid is very light in color.

Doctor's answer:

Hello! The discharge of yellow fluid suggests infection. Due to the surgery, there is a risk of edema and infection, and the lower genital area is difficult to care for. It is recommended to take the treatment seriously. Regardless of the type of cleansing solution you use, it is for anti-inflammatory and anti-swelling purposes. It is advised to soak for 10 minutes each night, followed by an iodine wipe. Iodine can be used three times a day, and anti-inflammatory and antibacterial treatment should also be administered, either through medication or intravenous fluids.
