Had a circumcision surgery last Saturday on 14 April but since yesterday I noticed some pus in the wound and it hurts when I try to clean it. Started taking ceftum 500 twice a day but not sure if washing with warm water will help or make the pus worse

It's important to seek medical advice immediately if you're experiencing pus and pain in a circumcision wound. While you're taking Ceftum, it's recommended to gently clean the area with warm water to help manage the infection, but you should not scrub or use harsh soaps. Warm water can help remove debris and promote drainage, but it's crucial to follow the guidance of your doctor, who may have specific instructions for wound care after circumcision.

I just experienced some swelling on my penis after masturbating about 4 or 5 times in a row. It's really worrying me, and Im not sure what to do. Could you give me some advice?
You may be experiencing inflammation or irritation from excessive masturbation. I recommend taking a break from any sexual activity to allow your body to heal. You can also try using an over-the-counter anti-inflammatory cream like ibuprofen gel applied to the affected area to reduce swelling and discomfort. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to prevent any further irritation. If the swelling persists or worsens, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.
