Patient's question:
I have had slightly long foreskin since I was a child, but I am a very clean person. I usually wash my private parts every day and have never had any serious illnesses, so I never considered getting a circumcision. However, I have now started dating a girlfriend and we are about to get married. She has suggested that I get circumcised. I am now considering whether to have the surgery done. What are the benefits of circumcision?Doctor's answer:
It is best to have the foreskin surgically removed in a timely manner. Circumcision can be performed in any season without specific time restrictions. It is generally more beneficial for inflammation to subside and recovery to occur during cooler weather. Sexual activity can typically be resumed about a month after the surgery, depending on individual constitution, with the ideal condition being pain-free erections. Postoperatively, it is advisable to wear cotton, loose, and breathable underwear. For specific precautions, please follow the doctor's instructions.
