U certainly can: Circumcision as an adult is certainly more painful & uncomfortable as an adult. However millions of men get circumcised &, if preformed correctly, have full recovery. Movemant & walking will be uncomfortable 4 few days & thus advise rest. Avoid sex or masturbation until all pain & tenderness gone (2 - 6 weeks) Avoid arousal after surgery & ask Dr about dose of Ativan (lorazepam) at night to avoid erections.
