[Clinical application value of liquid dressing after circumcision]

Area of Science:

• Urology
• Surgical Dressings
• Wound Healing

Background:

• Circumcision is a common surgical procedure.
• Postoperative pain and incision adhesion are significant concerns.
• Effective wound management is crucial for optimal outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

• To evaluate the efficacy of liquid dressing in managing pain and preventing incision adhesion post-circumcision.
• To compare the clinical application value of liquid dressing alone versus combined with vaseline gauze.

Main Methods:

• A comparative study involving 90 male patients undergoing circumcision.
• Three groups: liquid dressing + vaseline gauze (A), liquid dressing alone (B), and vaseline gauze only (C).
• Assessment of Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) pain scores, incision bleeding, and complications at 2, 4, and 6 days post-surgery.

Main Results:

• Groups A and B showed significantly lower VAS pain scores and incision bleeding incidence than Group C.
• Group A demonstrated markedly reduced pain and bleeding at 2 days compared to Group B.
• Pain scores remained lower in Group A at 4 and 6 days, with no significant difference in bleeding incidence between A and B.

Conclusions:

• Liquid dressing effectively alleviates pain and prevents incision adhesion during dressing changes after circumcision.
• The combination of liquid dressing with vaseline gauze yields superior pain relief and promotes better incision healing.
• Liquid dressings represent a valuable tool for improving postoperative care following circumcision.
