Patient's question:
These days, my mood has always been affected by my reproductive organs because of personal reasons. My foreskin is quite long, and I had a thorough check-up at the hospital, where they recommended that I have surgery. At the time, I thought it wasn't a big deal and didn't go through with it. But now, it's becoming increasingly uncomfortable, so I wanted to ask how much it costs to have a circumcision and whether the risks are high or not?Doctor's answer:
If the issue of phimosis reoccurs, it is advisable to promptly visit a hospital to undergo a circumcision procedure. Generally, the cost of a circumcision surgery typically ranges between 4,000 to 6,000 yuan, with prices varying depending on the hospital. The risk coefficient for circumcision surgery is relatively low, and it can be performed on an outpatient basis. After the circumcision surgery, it is essential to apply povidone-iodine externally to prevent local infection. Phimosis can be alleviated, but the treatment process is usually slow, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is crucial to actively cooperate with the doctor during the treatment.
