What Could Be The Reason For Having Unbearable Pain And Swelling In My Vein After The Circumcision?
Hi
I was circumcised 6 days ago and I'm feeling an unbearable pain which makes it hard for me to walk. I'm coming out pus just below the muscle or vein that comes out after circumcision and my vein is also swollen. My doctor gave me painamol, gen payne and Betamox as from day one but they seem not to help. The pus and smell started immediately after he removed the bandages, he only bandaged my penis for 3 days then told me to go wash it off with water that has salt but it's getting worse.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
Although the healing process is bit fast in the circumcised wound, if it became septic then this need to be treated with proper antibiotic, if I would be your doctor then I would treat your wound with the following medicine,
1) Tab Amoxicillin with clavulanic acid (You have to adjust the dose according to your age and wait as such you have not gave this information here)
2) Povidone Iodine ointment apply this on your wound frequently keep the wound clean
this will come around within a week and no need to worry, take care and have nice day.
