Circumcision Surgery
Circumcision is a surgical procedure that removes the foreskin covering the head (glans) of the penis. It is performed for medical, hygienic, or personal reasons. Dr. Parvati R. Falegaonkar performs circumcision with precision and care, ensuring patient comfort and excellent outcomes.
Medical Indications for Circumcision
Phimosis
A condition where the foreskin is too tight and cannot be retracted over the head of the penis, causing pain, difficulty urinating, or recurrent infections.
Paraphimosis
An emergency condition where the foreskin becomes stuck behind the glans and cannot be returned to its normal position, cutting off blood supply.
Recurrent Balanitis
Repeated inflammation and infection of the foreskin and head of the penis.
Balanoposthitis
Infection involving both the glans and foreskin, often recurrent and best managed with circumcision.
Procedure
Circumcision is performed under local or general anesthesia. The foreskin is carefully removed and the wound is closed with fine absorbable sutures. The procedure is relatively quick and most patients return home the same day.
