A member asked:

Is there any special care required post circumcision. skin below foreskin appears very thin i am afraid, can we wash it with soap later.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Mild soap: A mild facial soap like neutrogena or dove is ok to use. Wait at least a month to have the circumcision heal totally before having intercourse.
