    It takes 10 days to half a month to recover from phimosis surgery. Because everyone's body constitution and care methods are different, the time will also vary. It is necessary to pay attention to strengthen care to promote recovery.

    Phimosis surgery can be treated by circumcision surgery, which can remove the foreskin to improve the phenomenon of phimosis. Post-surgery will cause local swelling and pain. If you can strengthen your care and your physical condition is relatively good, you can usually recover in about 10 days. If your physical condition is relatively poor, or you do not take good care after the operation, it may have an impact on recovery, which may take half a month, so the specific time cannot be determined. Phimosis surgery is usually a relatively minor operation and will not have a big impact on the body, and the postoperative recovery will be relatively fast. Don’t worry too much. Sometimes, try to choose a regular medical institution.

    Pay attention to strengthening local care after surgery. You can use iodophor to disinfect the wound area to prevent wound infection. If necessary, you can cooperate with the doctor to take oral amoxicillin capsules for treatment, which can play an anti-infective role and help the swelling and pain to recover as soon as possible. During the recovery period, you should also pay attention to keeping the area clean and hygienic. Do not get wet in a short period of time. Try not to let the penis become erect, otherwise it will cause the wound to crack.
