Sometimes a plastic ring is used instead of a bandage. The ring will usually fall off in five to eight days.

Should you cover blister with a bandage?

yes, but first you want to clean it so as not to infect it. Get a cottonball or cotton swab (Qtip) and dip it in some alcohol (not the drinking kind, of course), then rub it on the blister. If you don't know, it will sting, but it's killing any germs on the cuts. Then put on the bandage, not the Band-Aid kind that has adhesive. You want the kind you wrap around.If you have something like neosporin, you could use that instead of alcohol.


How much does it cost to get a newborn circumcised?

Circumcision of infants is relatively cheep $400.00 because the mutilation is usually done with no anesthetic at all. Doctors get away with it because babys cant complain. Circumcision is not covered by health insurance as it is not a medically necessary procedure so you will have to pay for the full cost yourself out of pocket. Circumcision with general anesthesia should cost between $2000 and $3000. This includes the doctor performing the procedure and the anesthesiologist. Circumcision of adults is less expensive, as adults can opt to have only local anesthesia. Circumcision has no known medical benefit, and most doctors recommend against routine infant circumcision. Circumcision, like all surgeries, has risks of adverse medical events including surgical error, prolonged bleeding, infection, and pain. A permanent decrease in penile sensitivity and sexual pleasure is also common since circumcision removes the foreskin, which protects the sensitive glans (head) of the penis. Circumcision is extremely rare in the world outside the United States, and even within the United States, the circumcision rate has dropped by more than half. In 1980 over 80% of newborns in the United States were circumcised while in 2007 less than 40% of infants were circumcised.


Is circumcision mutilation?

Yes and no. Circumcision is done for health and religious reasons, but it could be considered mutilation if it's not done properly or if is not medically indicated or required by one's religion. Circumcision is sometimes but rarely medically indicated, and it is almost never medically indicated for newborns. There is no immediate medical justification for routine circumcision; that's why medical plans do not cover it. Always get opinions from physicians when it comes to medical procedures.
