Specializes in General Practice

Yes: After circumcision, you should avoid erections thus sexual stimulation. Stay supine for the first two days as the swelling and pain are worse the second day usually. Local cool pack may help with the pain. Apply ice pack over your clothing and use only when awake. Bath the area if your surgeon tells you with saline and pat dry. Apply vaseline to keep the wound moist. The wound is closed well
