When circumcision may be necessary

This section describes only the medical reasons when circumcision may be necessary. It is outside the scope of this article to discuss religious or cultural reasons for circumcision.
Conditions that may benefit from circumcision
Paraphimosis

Paraphimosis is a medical emergency. The foreskin is pulled back underneath the tip of the penis, becomes trapped and cannot be returned to its original position. Paraphimosis sometimes happens as a complication of a medical procedure that involves pushing back the foreskin for a prolonged period of time.

.............................

Balanitis
Balanitis is inflammation of the foreskin, usually caused by a bacterial infection.

Symptoms of balanitis include:
pain when urinating
a discharge of pus from the penis
inflammation of the shaft of the penis

Balanitis can be successfully treated using antibiotics. Most people do not have further infections. Circumcision is usually recommended only in adults in rare cases where someone has repeated infections (recurrent balanitis).

Urinary tract infections

A urinary tract infection (UTI) is an infection of the urinary system. It is estimated that 1 in 50 boys develop a UTI between their first and second birthdays. Around 1 in 2,000 men develop a UTI every year.

Research has found that circumcised boys are around 10 times less likely to catch a UTI than uncircumcised boys. This is because many UTIs are thought to be caused by bacteria that gather inside the foreskin before spreading to the urinary system. However, most UTIs are mild and do not cause serious damage. Circumcision is usually only recommended if a boy has a risk factor that increases the likelihood of repeated UTIs. Repeated UTIs can cause kidney damage.

Conditions that require circumcision

Balanitis xerotica obliterans (BXO) is a skin condition that can only be cured with circumcision. However, the condition is rare in young children and usually affects children over nine years old and adults.

BXO can cause hardening and inflammation of the penis, usually affecting the foreskin and tip of the penis. It causes symptoms such as:
difficulties passing urine
pain when passing urine
itchiness and soreness of the penis

In cases of BXO that primarily affect the foreskin, circumcision is usually the most effective treatment, and often results in a complete cure. In some cases, BXO can affect the urethra and treatment to widen the urethra may be necessary (a meatotomy).

Also, if you want your son to be a porn star.

[Sava]

That all seems like a choice because those are preventable conditions.

Hitler was most likely anti cut

[C0ckney]

you're not in very good form today.

[Sava]

Read my "Damit" thread. That's why.

[C0ckney]

ouch. i've just read it. i hope you get better soon.

[Uncle Sparky]

I haven't read the 'damit' thread... did the stitches from his latest circumcision get infected?

[Sava]

Sort of.

The surgery triggered a massive cellular growth response.

Long story short, do you want to buy some... "organic" socks?

[ricketyclik]

Uncut penis looks gross

I haven't had any complaints. Unanimously favourable feedback in fact

[Sava]

Dingos don't complain all that much

[regexcellent]

don't care about the court ruling but you're not a real american if you're uncircumcised, fact
