What Is The Reason For Sharp Pain In Glans With Redness After Circumcision With History Of Having Diabetes?

Hi, I'm 36 years old and just had a circumcision. I had phimosis and never exposed my glans, and recently due to a bout of balinitis I discovered I have diabetes. That's why I did the circumcision. It is now day 9, and it was healing very well until I had a very sharp pain today while walking from the glans (which I subsequently found to be red), and now the corona is also painfully sensitive. I have been re-applying new bandages every day either after bath or if it gets soaked in urine. What should I do?

Are you taking antibiotics also, as chances of infection are there if you are diabetic. and circumcision wound is getting repeatedly soaked in urine. My advice is you should consult with doctor and take him a look to your surgical wound, If he is ok than no problem, No harm in taking a little dose of antibiotics. If you need some time take a brufen tab to relieve pain and swelling.
