One month after the foreskin surgery, there is slight edema under the glans and it is possible to have sex.

Patient's question:

I have had my foreskin circumcised for a month. The wound has healed and doesn't hurt anymore, but it's still a bit swollen. Can I have sex?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, swelling after circumcision is a common phenomenon, but swelling has a time limit. It usually gradually disappears after about 20 days. Sexual activity should not be engaged in for at least one month after the surgery.
Advice: Regarding your mild swelling, if the incision is healing well and there are no signs of infection such as redness, swelling, or abnormal discharge, you can leave it alone for now. Continue to monitor it and maintain good hygiene of the penis. Avoid sexual activity. If there is an infection, you will need to undergo anti-inflammatory treatment.
