Don't know if you are male or female but here's for both:
In men they (after a injection for the pain) pull up the foreskin as much as they can and then cut it off. They finish with stitches around the edges. The stitches fall of by themselves. Not sure if that was what you were wondering but there's more here:

When cutting female genitalia we don't call it circumcision anymore but female mutilation since the result are so much more damaging and even kill women and little girls every year:

"Removal of a healthy body part without medical indication has been viewed as being a violation of the Hippocratic oath, falling under the United Nations' definition of genital mutilation. As such circumcision is seen as being against the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the Declaration on the Rights of the Child." - Canadian Medical Assocaition Journal, Volume 152, Number 11, Pages 1873-1876,

Another perspective on the infant's response to circumcision pain is provided by Marilyn Milos, who witnessed a circumcision during her training in nursing school:
We students filed into the newborn nursery to find a baby strapped spread-eagle to a plastic board on a counter top across the room. He was struggling against his restraints-tugging, whimpering, and then crying helplessly. . . . I stroked his little head and spoke softly to him. He began to relax and was momentarily quiet. The silence was soon broken by a piercing scream-the baby's reaction to having his foreskin pinched and crushed as the doctor attached the clamp to his penis. The shriek intensified when the doctor inserted an instrument between the foreskin and the glans (head of the penis), tearing the two structures apart. (when a baby is born the foreskin is stil attached to the foreskin and need to separated forcibly. The baby started shaking his head back and forth-the only part of his body free to move-as the doctor used another clamp to crush the foreskin lengthwise, which he then cut. This made the opening of the foreskin large enough to insert a circumcision instrument, the device used to protect the glans from being severed during the surgery. The baby began to gasp and choke, breathless from his shrill continuous screams. . . . During the next stage of the surgery, the doctor crushed the foreskin against the circumcision instrument and then, finally, amputated it. The baby was limp, exhausted, spent.
you cant. not to long after u r born, your parents authorize to get u circumsized. they dont give u anything to make you feel better. dont numb it or anything. this is cruel and in humane.
extremely risky.
Yes
No, only if there are medical reasons to why the foreskin can't be pulled back.
Yes, it can be done at any age. Speak to a Urologist.

Become Jewish and the Rabbi will do it for you. Seriously, though, it is not a do-it-yourself task. A doctor will perform the operation correctly without removing too much of the foreskin and under antiseptic conditions. By doing it yourself you could end up with a fierce infection that could cause other problems.
Many doctors suggest that for health reasons, you should circumcise your son.
The root is the prefix.Examples:Auto (automobile, autotech, autobot.. lol)Circum (circumstance, circumsize, circumvent)
Yes you can, but its reccomended to do it at a youger age because the amount of pain you experience and the time it takes for you to heal is much less in comparsion to when your older
Abraham promised all of his decendents would obey God and serve him and obey his commands and he promised he would circumsize all of his male infants
No the Swedish definitely don't circumcise. Circumcision is a religious custom and has is of no benefit to the person in question. None of the European country. s encourage circumcision.
Circumcision today is based on religious reasons (Judaism and Islam) and medical reasons (like if you can't pull it back and clean). There are no other reasons to do it but only in the US is it done routinely for appearance.
Tziporah circumcised her son because HaShem had commanded Moshe to do so. When Moshe didn't follow through right away, Tziporah completed the task as HaShem was going to let Moshe die otherwise.
