My dermatologist wants me to have a circumsion done but I am 77 years old and I do want that done . He said there was a possibility I cood get cancer if I didn t have it done. Answers please.

Its a precancerous lesion. And its not very bad to do a minor procedure like circumcision at this age.Infact its the best option ,rather going for a penilectomy after getting cancer penis.prevention is better than cure.
