What is Circumcision?

Circumcision is a surgical procedure in which the foreskin, the skin covering the head of the penis, is removed. It is typically performed for medical reasons, such as to treat infections, or for personal or cultural preferences. This procedure is commonly performed on newborns, but adults can also choose circumcision for health benefits or aesthetic reasons.




Benefits of Circumcision

Circumcision offers several health benefits, including:

  • Reduced Risk of Infections: Circumcision can reduce the risk of urinary tract infections (UTIs), penile infections, and some sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), including HIV.
  • Prevention of Phimosis: Phimosis is a condition where the foreskin is too tight to be pulled back over the head of the penis, and circumcision provides a permanent solution.
  • Improved Hygiene: Circumcision makes it easier to maintain good genital hygiene, as there is no foreskin to trap bacteria or smegma.
  • Decreased Risk of Penile Cancer: Circumcision has been shown to lower the risk of penile cancer, though it is rare.
  • Sexual Health: Some men report enhanced sexual experiences following circumcision, though this can vary from person to person.



The Circumcision Procedure

At Proud Urology Clinic, our urologists use the latest surgical techniques to ensure a safe and effective circumcision procedure. The procedure typically involves:

  1. Local Anesthesia: The area is numbed with a local anesthetic, ensuring you remain comfortable and pain-free during the procedure.
  2. Surgical Removal of the Foreskin: The foreskin is carefully removed, and the remaining tissue is stitched with dissolvable sutures.
  3. Sterile Technique: Our clinic follows strict sterile guidelines to minimize the risk of infection during the procedure.
  4. Minimal Discomfort: Most circumcisions are performed on an outpatient basis, allowing you to go home the same day.


The procedure usually takes about 20-30 minutes, and you can expect to return to normal activities after a few days of rest.



Recovery After Circumcision

After circumcision, you will need to follow specific care instructions to ensure proper healing and minimize discomfort. Our urologists provide detailed post-procedure guidelines, which typically include:

  • Resting: Take it easy for a few days, avoiding any strenuous physical activities or heavy lifting.
  • Pain Management: Over-the-counter pain medications can help alleviate any mild discomfort during the healing process.
  • Wound Care: Keep the area clean and dry. We recommend using mild soap and water for cleaning and avoiding the use of harsh chemicals.
  • Follow-up Visits: You will need to schedule a follow-up appointment to ensure the area is healing properly and to address any concerns.

Healing time typically takes about 7-10 days, after which most patients can return to their normal routine.
