Uh, couldn't you just wash it instead? It's no dirtier than other body parts, and if you shower once in a while, that should be enough. Once you have yourself cut, it can never be put back! You will find that the rubbing of your underwear is very uncomfotrable until you get enough calluses on the penis head, and once you do get the calluses, you will have greatly impaired sexual sensation.
Your body was perfectly designed to work the way it is - please do not mutilate yourself! Maybe a psychiatrist could help you accept your own normal body.

Yes, you may undergo circumcision at any age. Most men I have spoken with who have not been circumcised have the same difficulty with keeping the foreskin clean to their satisfaction. With the surgery the only painful portion should be when injecting the lanicaine (Novocaine) into your penis. It will take 3-6 weeks before you might be healed enough to even want to return to normal sexual activity. It depends on your immune system and the rate at which your body will heal from the trauma. The cost, as far as I know, is minimal compared to other surgeries. I still think this can be done right in the doctor's office, but as a person ages I do not know where it is done. The cost depends on any medical insurance you would use, where you live and what doctor/clinic you would use. A surgeon would cost more than your primary care doctor. Make sure your primary care doc is willing to perform the procedure. Some docs will not remove a man's foreskin.

Actually, you can get it done. Though I'd imagine it to be a bit painful. But, if you don't want it there go into a docters office tell them you'd like to have your foreskin removed and would like to undergo the procedure.
And the procedure range is from anywhere around $100 to $250.
Hope this helps you out. Good luck. =]

Yeah you should be able to get a circumcision at that age. I was circumcised when i was about 12 due to a tight foreskin so I don't see why you would be refused one.
As far as the pain goes it is pretty much painless. only real downside is you have to change underwear twice a day to prevent infections

Go to a good doctor and tell the doctor what you told here. The doctor and the team will work with you to control any pain.
