Preparing For Circumcision In London

By Angela Bennett


Even though different regions and tribes have varying cultural practices, circumcisions cuts across many if not all. The practice was carried out by specific people in the community in the past. However, this is not the case anymore because of exposure to viral diseases which have no cure. Circumcision in London is now a procedure carried out by surgeons.

Parents make decisions on the age of circumcision of their children depending on their preferences. Some will choose to do it immediately the child is born, others will wait for some years while some will have it when the boy reaches puberty. To note is that pain is no longer a factor because there is anesthesia.

Given the proximity of the foreskin to be removed with the rest of the reproductive parts, even slight mistakes can render the child impotent or even interfere with passage of urine. Therefore, you should be assured that the precautions necessary to avoid this will be taken. Besides this, you ought to follow up to make sure they are actually implemented and you are not just being told some stories.

Just because you will not be taking part in the process does not mean you should not ask about the steps to be followed. You should be taken through this. Also, ask questions where you do not understand. Do not leave out anything for fear of being seen as a bother to others. Once you have all the information then making the decision on how to proceed is very easy.

It is now very easy to learn new things for free. Therefore, you have no excuse for not searching for the information. You need to read textbooks and also research journals. Be careful not to read information that has been posted by people who have no concrete information on the topic.

When your child is suffering form other medical conditions, you will have to postpone the procedure until they are completely managed. There is no need to put the life of the child at risk because you want him to be circumcised. Also, ill health is a cause for postponing the issue. Strong immunity is crucial when it comes to healing.

Family history should be given for the doctor to check whether there are some risks which might impede the procedure. Therefore, do not tell lies no matter how embarrassed or scared you are about what health problems recede in the family. The truth will not hurt your child but rather help him.

For children who have developed their cognitive abilities, you ought to make them an active part in planning for the circumcision. They like to be considered important in such decisions. The boost in self-esteem they get helps them become confident. Also, they will be willing to remain brave all through. You will not have to try very hard in convincing them to have the procedure in such a case. However, do not take this to mean that they do not need your support. Given that they are children, they will be scared to some extent.
