What age is best for circumcision?

Patient's question:

I am a 31-year-old male who has been sick for a long time, but it wasn't until I got checked that I discovered this condition. Could you please tell me: What is the best age to have a circumcision surgery?

Doctor's answer:

Circumcision surgery is the most effective method for treating phimosis. Generally, circumcision can be performed at any age, but to ensure good cooperation from children, it is often recommended to have the surgery after the age of 10 or 18. Typically, it is best to schedule the procedure during spring or autumn. This is because extreme heat or cold can hinder wound healing, so these two seasons are ideal for achieving better scar formation after circumcision.
