Is it too late to cut phimosis at 17?


Guiding you to a healthier path.
It is obviously not too late to remove phimosis at the age of 17. It can be said that it is the right time for the following reasons: 1. If there is still phimosis at the age of 17, it means that the patient really needs to be removed. Under normal circumstances, it will be considered that puberty and adolescence, after a certain development is still too long or phimosis, you can consider surgical treatment, and especially in the case of phimosis is necessary surgery, because from a long time point of view, it is not conducive to the health of the penis, especially not conducive to the health of the glans, for a long time there is a risk of penile cancer, so from the time point of view is very appropriate. 2, 17-year-old phimosis is more appropriate because at this age can basically tolerate local anesthesia, so do not use general anesthesia. General anesthesia actually has a certain impact on the brain, so patients can also cooperate under local anesthesia, this time to do circumcision is the most ideal.
