Circumcision requires anesthesia, either local or general. The foreskin is then cut off and the remaining edges of the skin are stitched together. The penis is then bandaged. Men may be unable to walk for several days and should wear tight fitting briefs to keep the penis from moving. The procedure can be very painful, especially if erections occur in the days and weeks following surgery. _______________________________________________________________________ I would like to add something. When a circumcision is performed on a baby (this is when it is normally done) there is no anesthesia used at all as using any type of anesthesia on a baby is very risky.

∙ 8y agothe foreskin of a male's foreskin is cut off. usually as a religious (Muslim or Jewish) ritual. The practice also gained some traction in English speaking cultures to curb male masturbation (sexual pleasure) as it was thought in the Victorian era that this was responsible for more then a hundred different diseases.

∙ 13y agoThere are different procedural approaches to performing a circumcision, and depending on the age of the patient, it can be done by an ob/gyn, a pediatrician, a surgeon or a urologist.
In an approach that is common for adults, you get a injection to numb the area and then they cut the foreskin off and stitch up around it. You will be in some pain and discomfort for about 2-4 weeks until it has healed.
