After ten years of age, it is more appropriate for children to cut phimosis. It depends on the severity of phimosis. If it is only ordinary phimosis, it does not cause prepuce balanitis, nor does it cause poor urination in children. It is more appropriate after ten years of age. Because the older the child is, the easier it is for him to cooperate. The doctor performs local infiltration anesthesia. If the age is too young, it cannot be combined with local infiltration anesthesia. only general anesthesia can be performed. The loss outweighs the gain. If the child is less than five years old, has shown preputial abscess, has a serious infection, causing poor urination of the child, then it is also necessary to undergo circumcision surgery, can only be hospitalized for general anesthesia after surgery.
