    Foreskin surgery is a method to treat the symptoms of excessive foreskin in men. Because excessive foreskin can lead to abnormal penile erections and the presence of more bacteria in the foreskin, which can easily cause symptoms of balanitis, patients with excessive foreskin should have it removed when they are teenagers. Circumcision surgery will cause pain, and we can use local anesthesia to relieve the pain.

    1. In the treatment of male foreskin, surgical removal is the main treatment, because there is currently no drug that can treat the foreskin. This kind of surgery can be performed in regular hospitals. The method of using the link is not only safe and simple, but also allows for quick recovery after surgery.

    2. Local anesthesia is mainly used during circumcision, so the patient will not feel obvious pain during the operation. After the operation, the anesthetic effect gradually dissipates and the patient will feel less obvious pain after the operation. Generally, the pain will disappear in about five days.

    3. Generally, circumcision can be performed by going to a regular hospital. After the operation, you will be hospitalized for a few days for observation. In addition, you must do anti-inflammatory and anti-infection work to avoid postoperative infection. Pay attention to your personal diet and health after the operation, which has a direct impact on the recovery of the condition. You must not smoke or drink.

    Things to note:

    Patients with excessive foreskin should also pay attention to cleaning the foreskin area, bathe frequently and change clothes frequently. Wear loose and breathable underwear, be restrained in your sexual life, and pay attention to sexual hygiene.
