Circumcision is a surgical procedure that involves removing the foreskin, the fold of skin covering the head of the penis. Circumcision may be considered for certain medical conditions affecting the foreskin, including persistent tightness, recurrent infections or scarring.
The need for circumcision varies from person to person. A proper clinical assessment helps determine whether circumcision is appropriate or whether another treatment option may be more suitable.

The aim of circumcision is to address the underlying foreskin-related problem and support improved comfort and function where the procedure is medically indicated.
Some swelling, bruising, sensitivity and minor discomfort can occur during the initial recovery period. Healing time varies between individuals. NHS guidance states that complete healing commonly takes around 4 to 6 weeks, although this can vary.
Patients should follow their surgeon's individual instructions regarding work, exercise, sexual activity, wound care and follow-up.
