What is the best age for circumcision surgery?

Patient's question:

Male, 29 years old. My foreskin has always been very long, but because it involves cutting in that area, I'm a bit reluctant to go to the hospital, and I also feel a bit embarrassed. However, recently I feel that my private area just can't be cleaned properly. I'm very afraid of getting sick, so I want to get it treated. Please ask: What is the best age for a circumcision surgery?

Doctor's answer:

Men with excessive foreskin should seek medical treatment early for surgical removal. Undergo a circumcision procedure. For non-inflammatory cases of excessive foreskin, it is not necessary to have surgery as long as the foreskin is regularly retracted and cleaned. For phimosis and excessive foreskin, it is recommended to have a circumcision before marriage. After treatment, sexual activity can be resumed. Those who do not undergo this treatment should maintain cleanliness before and after intercourse, cleaning the penis regularly. Additionally, it is important to keep the genital area lubricated and avoid vigorous movements during intercourse to prevent recurrence of phimosis or frenulum rupture.
