What is Circumcision?

Circumcision is the removal of foreskin from a baby’s penis surgically within the first week of their birth. The word circumcision is of Latin origin: “circumcise” means “to cut around”. It is an elective surgery done primarily as a religious rite or cultural practice or as a procedure to prevent the occurrence of a particular disease. It is also an optional treatment for conditions such as balanitis, balanitis xerotica obliterans and for chronic urinary tract infections.

How is Circumcision performed: Before, During and After.

Before the surgery is conducted certain precautions are taken, such as

  • Clean and shave the pubic area (adult men)
  • If the patient is opting for a local anaesthetic, he can eat and drink as per normal.
  • The patient is advised to stop smoking, as it interferes with the healing of the wound.

Typically in this procedure, foreskin is extended with the help of forceps, after which the foreskin is cut off using a circumcision device. In children who have not attained puberty, foreskin attached to glans is broken first with a probe and then this surgery is conducted. The wound heals within seven to ten days. One week off from work is recommended post surgery.

Benefits of Circumcision

Circumcision has multiple  health benefits such as:

  • Less risk of developing urinary tract infection
  • Easier hygiene. Circumcision helps in keeping the penis clean
  • Risk of sexually transmitted infections is decreased
  • Prevention of penile problems such as phimosis
  • Decreased risk of penile cancer

Risk and complication of circumcision 

Risks associated with circumcision  include:

  • Bleeding
  • Reaction to anaesthesia
  • Cutting the foreskin too long or too short
  • Irritation on the tip of the penis
  • Infection
  • Pain
  • Meatitis (inflamed opening of the penis).

In some cases, the foreskin doesn’t heal properly and can stick to the end of the penis (penile adhesion). When this happens,  a second procedure is needed.

Men and older boys are advised to undergo circumcision if they suffer from medical problems like scarring of foreskin that prevents it from retracting (phimosis), recurring infections and inflammation of the penis (balanitis or lichen sclerosis) and if the foreskin is very tight and causes spraying and pain during urination. In healthy newborns, though there is no need for circumcision, some cultures and traditions advocate it.

If you plan to circumcise the baby, the doctor has to be consulted first about the whole procedure. The baby can be circumcised just two days after birth, but if the baby is preterm or has bleeding problems, you need to wait.

After circumcision, usually a plastic ring is inserted into the penis which will fall off by itself in 10-12 days. No stitches are involved with it. After the procedure a thin, yellow film may form which is a part of the healing procedure.Have questions about your surgery? Our team will assist you
