When is the best age for circumcision surgery in children?

When is the best age for children to undergo circumcision surgery? This depends on the child's condition. If the child has no symptoms of inflammation or is still too young, the surgery can be postponed for the time being. Before undergoing circumcision surgery, take the child to a regular hospital and have the surgery under the doctor's advice. It is very normal for children to have circumcision, and the surgery can be done when they reach a certain age. Still, you should pay attention to the child's hygiene.

1. If there are no symptoms, some children's penis will automatically get better as they grow older. If surgery is recommended, it is recommended to be done around 10 years old. This is a minor operation and there is nothing special to pay attention to. It is recommended to choose spring and autumn. The stitches can be removed in about 7 days. Clean more often.

2. Generally speaking, surgery for children with prepuce hyperplasia can be performed starting from 2 years old.

Guidance: Long-term urine and smegma can induce balanitis, which can cause edema, congestion, erosion, repeated cross infection and even foreskin incarceration of the foreskin. If not treated in time, the inflammation can spread along the reproductive tract.

3. Generally speaking, it is best to perform surgery when the child is about 15 years old. The specific situation should also depend on the child's condition. If the child has repeated urinary tract infections, early surgical treatment can be performed. Just pay attention to the child's hygiene to prevent inflammation, etc.

4. Phimosis refers to the foreskin covering the glans penis in its natural state or when erect. The penis of children is not fully developed yet, so it is not recommended now. When they are older, over ten years old, if it is still found that it is too long, they must receive treatment and undergo circumcision surgery.

As mentioned above, I hope it can give some reference to patients or their families. It is best to perform circumcision on children in winter or spring and autumn. At this time, there will be no autologous bacteria, which is beneficial to the recovery of children, and the body will be relatively comfortable. The stitches can be removed one week after the operation and the child can be discharged immediately. It will not cause any harm to the child. I hope parents will pay attention to the hygiene of their children.
