How long does it take to return to normal after circumcision

After circumcision, it usually takes 3-4 weeks to return to normal, which varies from person to person.

In general, the wound heals and recovers in about 1 week after circumcision, and the stitches can be removed according to the wound healing situation. It should be noted that there may be a problem of foreskin edema after the removal of the stitches. Some patients, such as erection of the penis, will aggravate the performance of foreskin edema, which may cause wound dehiscence and bleeding in serious cases. In addition, one month after circumcision, it is not recommended to have intercourse, so that intercourse does not aggravate the problem of foreskin edema too early and affect the normal healing of the wound recovery. During the recovery period, you can take some anti-inflammatory and anti-swelling drugs that can promote recovery.

After the surgery, pay attention to the diet, mainly light and easy to digest, avoid spicy and aggressive food, eat more high-protein food, fresh vegetables and fruits, etc., which is conducive to the recovery of the body.
