Day 10 after circumcision surgery, no stitches to remove

Patient's question:

It has been ten days since my circumcision surgery, and there is no need to remove the stitches. I underwent seven days of treatment with intravenous fluids for seven days. Now, when I get an erection, it doesn't hurt much. On the seventh day, the gauze was no longer used. Has the wound healed now? There are still many stitch ends, what should I do. Recently, I haven't received any anti-inflammatory treatment. Will this leave a scar?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, based on the described diagnosis, it is relatively clear that the exposed threads after circumcision can fall off on their own. However, it is recommended to provide daily disinfection to prevent infection.
If these threads have not fallen off after 15 days, it is advised to seek medical attention for manual removal to avoid prolonged retention, which may lead to infection.
