For the long prepuce, surgical resection is usually adopted for treatment. But in order to recover better after surgery, male friends must do a good job in postoperative care. So how should we care after the foreskin operation?
How to care after prepuce operation?
1. It is normal for the patient to have slight edema of the penis within 3 to 4 days after operation. This is the body reaction caused by anesthetic and operation. Note that the swelling is pink at this time.
2. Pay attention to wearing loose underpants after the operation of long prepuce. Generally, after the operation, the doctor puts a gauze curtain on the perineum after dressing the wound to reduce the friction of the penis.
3. How should I care after the operation of redundant prepuce? Patients should rest in bed for 3 to 4 days after operation, and avoid standing and sitting for a long time. Some young people are ashamed to ask for leave after surgery, but still insist on working. Due to poor local blood circulation, the penis swells into a purple eggplant, affecting the wound healing.
4. After the operation, you should go to the hospital to change the dressing and remove the skin suture as required by the doctor. The surgical scar will gradually absorb and become smaller.
5. What are the precautions for excessive prepuce? Within 3-4 days after the operation, take a sedative such as Diazepam 2.5 mg before going to bed to prevent the penis from erecting, causing pain or bleeding. Young people should pay more attention to the fact that the nerve endings of the penis covered for a long time are very sensitive. Once exposed, it is easy to erect, so they should avoid watching pornographic books and television, and lovers should avoid hugging and kissing for a while to avoid sexual stimulation.
6. After the operation of overlong prepuce, it is also necessary to pay attention not to wet the dressing when urinating. If it has been soaked in urine, it should be replaced as soon as possible. You can prepare 75% alcohol or 1 ∶ 1000 bromogeramine cotton ball or isotonic saline cotton ball, scrub around the urethra after urination, keep the wound dressing clean, or soak the penis head with 1 ∶ 5000 potassium permanganate solution warm water every day.
