What is Circumcision?
  • Circumcision removes the foreskin covering the
    glans (head) of the penis. Usually, babies
    undergo circumcision shortly after birth.
    Circumcision began as a religious rite. Today,
    people get circumcised for religious, medical and
    cultural reasons.
  • Many baby boys get circumcised, usually within
    the first week of life. Adults can get
    circumcised as well, though its less common.

3
Risk factor of Circumcision
  • Circumcision is a routine, safe procedure. As
    with any surgery, there are some risks, though.
    These include
  • Bleeding
  • Infection
  • Pain
  • Cutting the foreskin too long or too short
  • Irritation on the top of the penis
  • Meatitis
  • Reaction to anesthesia.

4
Benefits of Circumcision
  • The specific health benefits of circumcision
    include a lower risk of
  • Certain penis conditions These penile
    disorders include balanoposthitis (inflammation
    of the glans and foreskin), paraphimosis and
    phimosis, when the foreskin gets stuck out of
    place.
  • Cervical cancer for partners Female sex partners
    of circumcised men are less likely to
    get cervical cancer.
  • Penile cancer Men who had circumcisions are less
    likely to get cancer of the penis.
  • Sexually transmitted infections Men who had
    circumcision have a lower risk of certain STIs,
    including HIV.
  • Urinary tract infections UTIs are more common in
    uncircumcised males.

Procedure
  • During a circumcision, the penis and foreskin are
    cleaned and the foreskin is removed. Parents
    should talk with their doctor about pain relief
    choices to help reduce any discomfort during the
    procedure, and for several hours after the
    procedure. A topical numbing cream can be put on
    the penis before the procedure or an injectable
    anesthetic can be used to numb the area before
    the procedure. Along with the anesthetic,
    acetaminophen is sometimes given as well.

6
After Procedure
  • After circumcision, caring for the penis is
    simple but important. Wash the area gently with
    warm water. Pat dry and put on a new bandage with
    antibiotic ointment each time you change the
    diaper. It should take about a week to heal. It's
    normal for there to be a little swelling, redness
    and maybe blood at first. If these problems last
    several days or seem worse, have your baby seen
    by a doctor. Also talk to your baby's doctor if
    he gets a fever or doesn't have a wet diaper
    within 12 hours of circumcision.
