Patient's question:
I am 27 years old. My foreskin has always been very long, and it also covers the glans when fully erect. I want to have a circumcision, but I don't know which method is best. I see many blood vessels on my foreskin, and some of them are quite thick. If I have a circumcision, won't that mean cutting those blood vessels too? Also, what is the general cost?Doctor's answer:
I. Inspection Fees: Generally, inspection fees range from a few tens to hundreds of yuan, primarily to check if the reproductive organs have inflammation. After circumcision, whether it affects recovery needs to be assessed. If it does, treatment should be administered first.II. Surgical Fees: This involves hospital facilities, the surgeon, surgical methods, etc. The better the hospital conditions, the more skilled the doctor, and the more advanced the surgical method, the higher the price will be accordingly.
Be Cautious of "Traps" When Getting Circumcised
Generally, hospitals have reasonable fees. The surgical cost mainly includes disposable materials used during the procedure, labor costs, and equipment wear and tear. Painless circumcision also requires imported anesthetics. However, due to differences in equipment, materials, and anesthetics, costs may vary. Currently, many small clinics attract customers with "low" prices, but their basic equipment and medical conditions are very inadequate, and the safety of the surgery cannot be guaranteed. Improper circumcision can lead to higher follow-up treatment costs, and if an accident occurs, the consequences can be severe.
Although circumcision is not a major surgery, if the treatment is not guaranteed to be safe, it can cause significant harm to the patient, even leading to the inability to achieve an erection thereafter. Therefore, when getting circumcised, it is essential to choose a, professional hospital for treatment, prioritizing safety over cost.
