Is It Too Late to Have a Circumcision at Age 30?

Yes, a 30-year-old man can undergo circumcision surgery. On the one hand, it is for his own reproductive health, and on the other hand, it is for the health of his partner. The following patients usually need to undergo circumcision surgery: the first category is those who repeatedly suffer from balanitis, in order to completely treat balanitis, circumcision surgery is needed to expose the glans penis and urethra completely. The second category is phimosis, which is a more severe form of excessively long foreskin. Because the foreskin orifice is narrow, the foreskin cannot be turned over, thus the glans penis and urethra cannot be exposed. The third category is due to excessively long foreskin, which repeatedly causes gynecological inflammation in the partner, and also requires surgical treatment. Therefore, at the age of 30, if a man wants to undergo surgery for excessively long foreskin, it is completely feasible, and generally there are no complications.

1. Continuous anti-inflammatory treatment. Regardless of the method used for circumcision, after the surgery, there may be inflammation in the foreskin and glans penis, so continuous anti-inflammatory treatment is necessary. Otherwise, once infection occurs in the foreskin and glans penis, it may lead to excessive sensitivity of the male glans penis, resulting in the occurrence of impotence and premature ejaculation.

2. Avoid sexual activity. Before the surgical wound is fully healed, men should avoid sexual activity. Because sexual activity may not only lead to wound dehiscence, but also may be invaded by bacteria, thus inducing certain reproductive diseases.

3. Dietary taboos. After circumcision surgery, there are also dietary considerations. For example, quit smoking and drinking, and eat less spicy and stimulating foods. However, fruits and vegetables can be eaten more, as they contain a large amount of vitamins, which can help kill bacteria, reduce inflammation, and relieve pain.

4. Behavioral taboos. Men who have just undergone circumcision surgery should not engage in heavy physical work, especially protecting the genitals and avoiding direct friction between the glans penis and underwear. In addition, they should not sit for a long time to avoid compressing the genitals. Finally, they should not stare at computers and mobile phones for a long time to avoid radiation.
