Patient's question:
Circumcision. What issues need to be noted? What season is best? How much does it cost approximately? Thank you!!Doctor's answer:
Hello! Clean the area the night before and on the day of the surgery. If there is a concurrent condition such as balanitis or posthitis, treatment should be administered in advance, and the surgery should only be performed after the inflammation subsides.Within three months after circumcision, it is best to avoid walking, cycling, sexual stimulation, and fantasies to prevent repeated erections from affecting wound healing. Keep the perineal area clean. Some patients may experience discomfort in the circumcised area after surgery and should avoid scratching. After urination or defecation, ensure the area is thoroughly cleaned to prevent contamination. Do not hold urine to avoid repeated erections that could hinder wound healing. Between 2 to 3 months after surgery, taking a sedative before bed may be appropriate, and short-term estrogen supplements can be taken to prevent pain and bleeding caused by erections.
There is no strict seasonal restriction for circumcision; the earlier it is done, the better. Statistics show that over 90% of penile cancers are associated with phimosis or excessive prepuce. Our hospital uses laser circumcision, which, due to its high-temperature effect, causes small blood vessels to coagulate and stop bleeding. This method results in minimal bleeding during surgery and excellent postoperative healing, with reasonable fees, typically around 300.
