Just had a circumcision surgery 9 days ago, and the swelling hasn't subsided yet. I've been taking oral anti-inflammatory medication, but it doesn't seem to be getting better.Doctor's answer:
Hello, there is usually a period of edema after a circumcision surgery, which typically lasts for about a week. If there is no improvement after a week, it is necessary to seek medical attention promptly.After the surgery, special attention must be paid to hygiene. If the (gauze) gets wet with urine, it should be replaced immediately to avoid the risk of infection.
