Suggest Remedy For Pain While Moving Foreskin After Frenuloplasty Surgery
Please follow instructions below
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX,
Thanks for writing in to us.
I have read through your query in detail.
Please find my observations below.
1. Frenuloplasty is a procedure involving the surgical correction of frenulum which is a sensitive skin attaching the foreskin to the penis.
2. Please take the medicines given to you by your doctor to be taken after the surgery.
3. For the frenuloplasty post operative wound care you should do the following.
(i) In the first 48 hours, please do not try to pull the foreskin back as the wound is still healing. During this time please apply warm water and clean the area with sponging and then apply T bact ointment.
(ii) From the third day onwards you can slowly sponge the area with warm water after moving back the skin with clean hands and use T bact ointment.
(iii) There will be small blisters formed in the operated area and this falls out as scar in 10 days after healing.
Hope this answers your question. Please feel free to correct any oversight in my interpretation of your problems and discuss them in detail as per your requirements.
Hope your query is answered.

Please have the operated wound seen by the surgeon to confirm healing
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX,
Thanks for writing back with an update.
1. Most surgeons use self dissolving material for stitches and if your surgeon has also used self dissolving ones then it will dissolve in 7 to 10 days.
2. If your surgeon has asked to come for stitch removal then they might have used non dissolving material and this requires to be removed after a week.
3. Slight pain and itching will be there because of the sensitive nature of the operated area. Please avoid touching your penis except during urination or cleaning and applying ointment. Even if your doctor has not called you, it will be better to consult them tomorrow and have the operated area seen once to make sure healing is normal.
