Circumcised And Penis Dressed. Should Hibatine Be Used As It Is Or Diluted ?

Good evening Doc...I was circumcised last night at around 7pm, and my penis is dressed, am a lil confused cos they gave me a 500ml bottle of Hibitane 0,5% in water, now do dilute it in water or I just use it just the way it is?? Please help me out. And when will the bandage come off, do I take it off or go see a Doc again?

HI

Dressing can be taken off after 24 hours and you can clean the area with hibitane diluted with water.Wipe it dry and you can keep the wound open or apply an ointment like neosporin or chlorhexidine.Take the dressing slowly after wetting it so as to soften the dried blood which sticks to the penis.
All the best.
