In Israel, male babies born eight days ago are circumcised, that is, circumcised.
The United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention also recommended that all newborn boys in the United States be circumcised to reduce the risk of infection with AIDS.
Why do children circumcise?
Small boys with long foreskins are prone to bacteria and inflammation. The foreskin wraps around the head of the penis, commonly known as "phimosis," which can hinder penis development and can easily cause penis shortness and affect sexual life in adulthood.
How does the foreskin count as too long?
When a baby boy is born, there is a physiological adhesion between the foreskin and the penis.
At this time, the glans is completely wrapped in a foreskin, which is called phimosis in medicine. As the penis and foreskin gradually develop, some parts of the phimosis disappear, while others still exist. "Most of these phimosis can be turned over by hand or when the penis is erect, exposing the glans, which is said to be too long.".
Circumcision is better after age 6
Why do you say that
If a child is operated on too early, it can damage this physiological adhesion, damage the delicate epidermis of the penis, prolong the postoperative recovery period, increase the pain of the child and the difficulty of parental care.
"Because the physiological adhesions in the foreskin cavity of children of this age group have been basically separated, the possibility of surgical injury to the penis head is very small. At the same time, the child has a sense of voluntary surgery, can cooperate with the doctor for surgery, and will do well in postoperative care, which is conducive to postoperative recovery.".
