    Circumcision generally costs 1,000-5,000 yuan, and the specific cost is related to factors such as local economic level, choice of surgery, and anesthesia method.

    In first-tier cities, the cost of traditional circumcision is usually 2,000-3,000 yuan. If new surgical methods such as laser or stapler are used, the price may reach 3,000-5,000 yuan. The cost of traditional surgery in second-tier cities is about 1,500-2,500 yuan, and the cost of new surgery is 2,500-4,000 yuan. The cost of surgery in third-tier cities and below is relatively low, with traditional surgeries costing about 1,000-2,000 yuan and new surgeries costing about 2,000-3,000 yuan. In addition, the cost of routine preoperative examinations such as routine blood tests and coagulation function tests is about 200-500 yuan, and antibiotics or analgesics may be needed after surgery, which costs about 100-300 yuan. The cost of local anesthesia is generally included in the surgical fee. If you choose general anesthesia, you need to pay an additional 500-1,000 yuan. The pricing of different medical institutions may vary, so it is recommended to choose a regular medical institution for surgery.

    After circumcision, you need to keep the wound dry and clean, avoid strenuous exercise, and wear loose clothing to reduce friction. You should eat a light diet, consume more foods rich in high-quality protein such as eggs, fish, etc. to promote wound healing, and avoid spicy and irritating foods. Mild pain or edema may occur 1-2 days after surgery, which is normal. If severe pain, persistent bleeding, fever or other abnormal conditions occur, you should seek medical attention in time for review. Sexual intercourse is prohibited within 1 month after surgery, and recovery is monitored regularly by follow-up visits.
