Introduction
Phimosis surgery should be handled by the urology department. In some large hospitals, this procedure can be performed on an outpatient basis, with a cost of approximately 1,000 yuan. It is recommended to visit the urology department of a major hospital rather than so-called men's hospitals or specialized clinics. Most of these smaller hospitals are privately operated, often have suboptimal medical techniques, and charge relatively high fees.

After phimosis surgery, proper care of the affected area is essential. Keep the site clean and dry, closely monitor for signs of swelling or hematoma at the incision, avoid touching the wound with hands to prevent infection, and diligently follow dressing change instructions to promote healing. Maintain a light diet, avoiding spicy foods, and drink plenty of plain water daily. Try to urinate in a standing position to prevent urine from soaking the dressing and causing infection. Avoid smoking and alcohol consumption. We hope this information is helpful. Wishing you good health and a happy life.
