Circumcision is a procedure as old as mankind and can be handled by regular medical units today. As long as it is done correctly, it is safe and effective.
The benefits of circumcision are mainly hygienic, easy to clean, reduces the incidence of infection and related complications, especially sexually transmitted infections, and circumcision in children reduces the incidence of penile tumors in adulthood.
When healthy children are born, the foreskin completely covers the head of the penis, and there are different degrees of adhesion between the foreskin and the head of the penis, which is a normal physiological phenomenon. As the epidermis of the head of the penis develops and matures with age, the adhesion between the foreskin and the head of the penis is reduced and the circumcision is relaxed.
The general circumcision does not require special treatment after the surgery, individually or even do not take any medication, just follow the doctor’s instructions.
Circumcision can be performed by manual excision, suturing or special equipment such as ligatures or disposable anastomosis, with similar results and advantages and disadvantages.
