My son would have thanked me and his father if we had done this as a newborn. He underwent circumcision at age 5, and it was uncomfortable for him after the surgery, as the next day he has some swelling. It took a few days to heal. <br /><br />DorisHold my hand: a social worker's bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06283197748791227012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8085364042461678579.post-42181566934865461322011-01-22T06:50:34.728+02:002011-01-22T06:50:34.728+02:00Lynda Lehman,

Scientifically I hear that the removal of the foreskin is a healthy procedure but Jews and Islams have a religious connotation -- 'The chosen one of God' tag to the circumcised.<br /><br />I am sure the practice is healthy for the cute baby.
