I've had a circumcision about 20 days ago, and I'm starting to get worried about the incision scar. Is there any cream that can help with scar removal, or are there any other options you would recommend to get rid of the scars?

-I'd advise you to be patient with the healing process, as scars can take several months to improve. Keeping the area moisturized and protected from sun exposure is key to minimizing scarring.

I'm 28 and planning to get married on March 4th but want to get circumcision done before that. How much time should I allow for recovery and when would be the best time to schedule the surgery?

As a doctor, I‚Äôd recommend scheduling circumcision at least 4‚Äì6 weeks before your wedding. This allows adequate time for healing, reduction of swelling, and resumption of normal activities, including sexual intercourse. Ideally, plan the procedure by late January to ensure full recovery by March 4th.
