    The main methods of circumcision surgery include circumcision, stapler surgery, laser circumcision, etc. The specific choice depends on the patient's age, foreskin shape and doctor's evaluation.

    Circumcision is a traditional surgical procedure in which excess foreskin is removed with a scalpel and the wound is sutured. This method is mature and low-cost, and is suitable for most adult patients with phimosis or redundant foreskin. Postoperative dressing needs to be changed regularly to prevent infection, and the recovery period is about 7-10 days. The circumcision stapler surgery uses a disposable stapler to complete the cutting and suturing. The operation time is short and the incision is neat. This method has less bleeding and less pain, and is suitable for children and those with high aesthetic requirements. The staples usually fall off on their own within 1-2 weeks after surgery, and the area needs to be kept dry during this period. Laser circumcision uses lasers to precisely cut and stop bleeding, with minimal trauma during the operation and minimal postoperative edema. This technology has higher requirements for operators and is suitable for those with coagulation disorders or those who are sensitive to pain. Strenuous exercise should be avoided after surgery to prevent wound dehiscence.

    After surgery, you should wear loose cotton underwear to reduce friction, and use iodophor to disinfect the wound every day. Sexual life and strenuous exercise are prohibited within 1 month after surgery. If redness, swelling and exudation occur, timely review is required. You should eat a light diet and consume more high-quality protein to promote healing, such as eggs, fish, etc.
