Circumcision

Circumcision is the surgical removal of the skin covering the tip of the penis. it cut off part of the too-tight foreskin so that the glans of the penis can be exposed. The operation in an adult usually takes about 30 to 45 minutes and can be performed as a day surgery under local anaesthesia. No hospitalization is required.

 

Preparation

  1. Follow the instructions of the anathesiologist about avoiding food and drink before surgery. Fasting is usually necessary starting about six hours.

  2. If necessary, either local or general anaesthesia should always be used.

 

Procedure

  • You may usually have a general anaesthetic, which will numb your penis and the surrounding area. The procedure takes about 30 minutes.

  • The foreskin is removed behind the head of the penis

  • Applying a little dressing to the end of the penis may reduce the stinging sensation during urination

  • Patients should be permitted to go home after the surgery if the patient’s condition was stable 

 

 

Follow-up and recovery

  • Your doctor will give you specific instructions on how to care for your incision and lessen your pain.

  • You may gently remove your bandage when you get home, be careful do not wash directly over your incision.

  • Recovery time is generally 2-3 days, you can return to daily activities within 2-4 weeks.

  • Short-term impact due to a small amount of the anaesthetic, which may still remain in your body, so it is never a good idea to drive yourself home from surgery, drink alcohol, sign any important documents etc. within 24 hours.
