Boys can usually be circumcised at the age of 5 or older.
Boys can be circumcised when they are over 5 years of age, because boys over 5 years of age have a certain tolerance for pain, can better cooperate with the doctor, and are less likely to produce resistance behavior. In addition, the surgery can be performed under local anesthesia, without hospitalization, and with intravenous antibiotics.
The main danger of circumcision is that it is difficult to clean, and there may be a lot of metabolic waste between the foreskin and the glans, which will stimulate the glans to produce inflammation, and repeated stimulation of inflammation can lead to the occurrence of penile cancer. Therefore, boys who are circumcised need to be circumcised. At the same time, boys over 5 years old have more complete physical and mental health, so the impact on the body is not too great.
Boys at what age to circumcise, specific can go to the hospital to consult the relevant doctors.
