Do you have to change the dressing every day after circumcision?

If the recovery after circumcision is good, usually do not need to change the dressing every day, 2-3 days for a dressing change can be. However, if there is blood seepage or increased secretion after circumcision, you may consider shortening the dressing change time appropriately, or visiting the hospital in time for follow-up. At present, the common way of circumcision is circumcision, which is mainly through local anesthesia to remove the excess foreskin in order to expose the head of the penis. Absorbable gauze or sutures are mostly used in circumcision, which eliminates the problem of removing stitches and reduces the number of dressing changes to a certain extent. Influenced by the individual’s physical condition and surgical proficiency, circumcision also carries risks such as infection and bleeding. If bleeding persists for a longer period of time after the end of the surgery, or if the wound secretion keeps increasing, the wound can be treated by changing the medicine in time to reduce the risk of wound infection, and timely medical treatment is needed if necessary. After circumcision, you need to take care of the wound, minimize touching the wound, keep the wound clean, and take medication under the direction of your physician to prevent infection.
