Circumcision Care: Salt Baths - What You Need to Know

No, you should not have a salt bath after circumcision. Salt water can irritate the circumcision wound and delay healing. It's important to keep the circumcision wound clean and dry to promote healing. You should only bathe in warm, clean water and avoid using any soap or other products on the wound. You should also avoid swimming in pools or hot tubs until your doctor says it's okay.
