CIRCUMCISION
Circumcision is the surgical removal of all or part of the FORESKIN
otherwise Known as PREPUCE of the penis. In infancy, it is usually carried out
for social or cultural reasons. In average males, it is carried out for medical
reasons.
WHAT ARE THE PROCESSES INVOLVED IN CIRCUMCISION?
They are basically 2 common method of carrying out circumcision.
- A specially shaped piece of plastic is applied over the end (glands) of the penis and the foreskin is stitched over it before being cut off.
- The foreskin is carefully cut and stitched.
WHAT ARE THE REASONS FOR CIRCUMCISION?
As mentioned earlier, circumcision can be carried out for social or
medical reasons. The reasons for social circumcision varies from culture to
culture, sometimes it is religious driven as most religions do it as an
initiation into adulthood. Other cultures do it as a tradition of the family or
because majority of the males in the neighborhood are circumcised.
The medical reasons include a reduction the foreskin because in some
rare instances the foreskin is usually longer and the exit is usually narrow (PHIMOSIS) at birth. Or the glans
inside the foreskin may become infected by bacteria or from diaper rash which
often cause the foreskin to become scarred and abnormally tight.
Studies have shown that cancer of the penis is commoner in the uncircumcised and that circumcision reduces the possibility of cancer of the cervix, although it is not yet a conclusive fact.
