For many, circumcision is better known by another name: circumcision. The procedure used to be associated with religious and cultural rituals, but modern men are increasingly opting for it deliberately, for practical reasons, or to solve certain health problems. In this article, we will look in more detail at the rationale and benefits of choosing the circumcision procedure.
Circumcision – a modern medical procedure
Circumcision has been practised in some areas and cultures since historical times, but it has little in common with modern circumcision. The operation involves removing the foreskin, the skin covering the head of the penis. The removal is performed surgically, depending on the patient’s needs and indications.
This procedure may be recommended by a doctor for certain reasons, but men can also apply voluntarily. The circumstances of the procedure are first discussed with the patient and the operation is planned. It is carried out under anaesthesia, so general examinations are required. No special preparation is necessary, but you should be aware that healing may take a week or two, and it is important to follow the doctor’s instructions in the post-operative period.
