Overview

Circumcision is a surgical procedure involving the removal of the foreskin from the penis. It is performed for medical, religious, cultural, or cosmetic reasons, addressing issues such as difficulty in retracting the foreskin, painful sexual activity, or as a religious ritual.

Description

The circumcision procedure involves the surgical removal of the foreskin covering the head (glans) of the penis. It is typically performed under local anesthesia and takes approximately 30 to 45 minutes as an outpatient procedure. The foreskin is carefully cut back along the shaft, and a precise incision is made to remove the excess skin. Special attention is paid to aligning the skin and mucosal edges for optimal cosmetic results.

Consultation

During your consultation with Dr. Chaudhari, he will discuss your reasons for considering circumcision, assess your medical history, and explain the procedure in detail. You will also receive instructions on pre-operative preparation and post-operative care.

Procedure

  • Anesthesia: Local anesthesia is administered to numb the area.
  • Incision: The foreskin is gently pulled back, and a circumferential incision is made around the shaft of the penis at the desired location.
  • Skin Removal: A longitudinal incision is made between the circumferential cuts to remove the foreskin.
  • Suturing: The remaining edges of the skin are carefully sutured together to promote healing and achieve a neat cosmetic outcome.
  • Dressing: A small wraparound dressing is applied to protect the surgical site.

After Surgery

  • Patients typically stay in the clinic for 2-3 hours post-procedure.
  • Antibiotics and painkillers are prescribed for 7 days to manage discomfort and prevent infection.
  • Patients are advised to abstain from sexual activity for about 4 weeks to allow for complete healing.
  • Most patients can resume normal activities, including work, within 1-2 days after the procedure.

Results

  • Circumcision often provides satisfactory cosmetic results with minimal signs of surgery.
  • Improvement in conditions like difficulty retracting the foreskin or discomfort during sexual activity.
  • Long-term benefits include easier hygiene and potentially reduced risk of certain infections.

Complications

Possible complications include:
  • Dehiscence: The wound opens up before it heals completely.
  • Infection: Risk of infection at the surgical site.
  • Bleeding: Minimal risk of bleeding post-procedure. Dr. Chaudhari will provide detailed post-operative care instructions to minimize these risks.
Disclaimer: While complications are rare, individual outcomes may vary. Dr. Chaudhari will discuss personalized risks and benefits during your consultation.
