Recovery and Aftercare
Since circumcision is a slightly painful procedure, simple painkillers such as paracetamol may be needed for a few days after the surgery.
The operated foreskin will be sensitive to touch and friction, so it may be beneficial to apply antibiotic cream to the area for a few days and protect it from trauma to prevent the risk of infection. Comfortable and loose-fitting clothing is recommended. It is also advisable to avoid cycling and active sports until the swelling disappears completely. If the patient is of school age, they should be able to return to school approximately one week after circumcision, though they may need to stay home for a few days immediately following the procedure.
Circumcision Techniques
Circumcision can be performed through one of three main methods:
- Dorsal Slit
- Shield-Clamp: Mogen clamp, Plastibell®, Gomco clamp, Zhenxi ring, Tara clamp, Smart clamp, Shang Ring®, and Prepex® device.
- Surgery (Sleeve Resection): A combination of techniques may also be used.
It is also possible to circumcise with hand tools that use the cutting and burning process simultaneously, known as circumcision thermocautery. However, these devices are not recommended as they can damage the nerve structure of the penis due to the thermocautery effect.
Circumcision Contraindications
Circumcision should not be performed in:
- Premature infants.
- Those with haemorrhagic diathesis in the family or in the baby.
- Children with external genital organ anomalies where the foreskin may be used in future operations, including:
- Hypospadias
- Epispadias
- Buried penis
- Megalourethra
- Chordee
- Webbed penis
