Hello,

The symptoms can be related to an infection. I recommend washing and drying frequently in the penile area. You can take acetaminophen for the infection.

I suggest you change the bandage often. If the symptoms continue you should consult your doctor for prescribed antibiotics.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
