The foreskin refers to the double layer of skin covering the glans penis. In infants and young children, the foreskin is longer and covers the penis, making the glans penis and the external opening of the urethra invisible. It is a physiological foreskin. With the growth of age, the penis and foreskin gradually develop. During puberty, the foreskin retracts backwards, and the glans penis is exposed in adulthood. However, in about 30% of adults, the foreskin completely covers the glans penis.

During circumcision surgery, the doctor will give appropriate anesthesia according to the patient's condition. In order to avoid vomiting caused by the patient's intolerance to anesthetics, the patient should fast for four to six hours before the surgery. After the surgery, when the anesthetic effect wears off, the wound will have slight pain and bruising. The patient should take medication regularly. Usually, the symptoms will subside after three days, and the wound will heal after seven to ten days. Before the wound heals, the patient should follow the doctor's instructions for regular follow-up examinations. In addition, the wound should be kept clean and dry after the surgery. Be careful not to wet the gauze when urinating. If the gauze is soaked with urine, remove the gauze first and then return to the outpatient clinic for a change of dressing.

Circumcision is the smallest urological surgery, but it is related to a man's "sexual happiness" throughout his life.
