Common foreskin issues can be treated conservatively and without surgery, which is less expensive and less likely to injure the patient.

Doctors in the Victorian era started the modern, non-religious practice of circumcision in order to deter masturbation.
The foreskin has protective, sensory and sexual functions. It starts right behind the head of the penis and moves forward to cover the glans.
These recommendations were created by NORMUK to aid in the diagnosis and management of phimosis among health authorities.
Babies who, by definition, cannot give informed consent of the kind available to adults are frequently subjected to circumcision procedures.
Some believe that only a small amount of excess skin is removed during circumcision. However, circumcision eliminates many important parts.
