Is circumcision suitable for winter? How long does it take to heal after surgery?

The human body sweats a lot in summer, and the warm and humid climate can easily breed bacteria and cause infections. Therefore, for some non-urgent surgeries, doctors generally recommend that patients perform elective surgeries, such as surgeries in winter. Because winter is the golden time for men's surgery, the appropriate temperature is conducive to surgery and postoperative recovery. Dr. Li Ziqiang, an andrology expert at Shenzhen Hospital, pointed out that an excessively long foreskin can cause many hazards. There are two ways to solve this problem: First, develop good hygiene habits, often turn the foreskin over and wash it with clean warm water. Remove smegma in time, and push down the foreskin in time after washing to avoid foreskin incarceration; second, perform circumcision surgery in time. Patients with excessive foreskin or phimosis should go to a regular hospital for surgical treatment as soon as possible. As the temperature drops, winter in Shenzhen is coming. There are three benefits of circumcision in winter: 1. Drinking less water in winter avoids the trouble of frequent urination. 2. The frequency of bathing is reduced in winter, thus avoiding the trouble of bathing. 3. Due to the cool weather, factors such as overheating in summer that can easily cause infection are avoided, which is more conducive to post-operative recovery after circumcision surgery. In addition, you must pay attention to the following matters after circumcision surgery: 1. If conditions permit, you should rest for 3 to 4 days after circumcision. Mild edema of the glans penis during this period is normal, which is caused by anesthesia and surgery. reaction, note that the swelling is pink at this time. 2. Avoid standing or sitting for long periods of time, and try to wear loose underwear. Generally, the doctor will put a gauze curtain on the perineum after the wound is bandaged to reduce friction on the glans penis. 3. Do not get the dressing wet when urinating. If it is soaked with urine, change it as soon as possible. You can bring your own cotton balls to scrub around the urethra after urinating to keep the wound dressing clean. 4. Keep your mood stable within one week after the operation, prohibit sexual intercourse for 40 days, and try to avoid erections to avoid incision dehiscence, bleeding and infection. Andrology experts remind: The effect of circumcision surgery will directly affect the appearance, quality of sexual life, etc. If the surgery is not performed properly, symptoms such as recurrence of phimosis, short foreskin of the penis, painful penile erection, and poor appearance of the penis may occur, which will increase the patient's physical and psychological pain. This surgery is only done once in a lifetime, so you should be careful when choosing the surgery. Therefore, in order to avoid these adverse effects, male friends with excessive foreskin must go to a professional andrology hospital for surgery.
