Patient's question:
A few days ago, I had my stitches removed after a circumcision surgery. However, there's one spot where the skin hasn't healed properly, while the rest has healed well. The doctor said the stitch in that area would naturally fall off on its own and not to worry. But today, I noticed a wound about 1 centimeter next to the unremoved stitch, with some pus-like liquid. It feels like it's pus. I'm afraid of infection. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Hello, considering your condition, there is a possibility of postoperative infection and complications. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for a follow-up check on your postoperative condition and then take medication targeted at your specific needs.
