Hello,
Intercourse is not the main cause of your situation. Of course, trauma can increase the risk for wound inflammation, but the infection is related to low hygiene, humidity or increased sweating or contamination during surgery.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
