A member asked:
My foreskin can't retract over the penis head and hygienically unable to fully clean around the head due to this. is general anesthetic an option for surgical correction or only local?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Local: Circumcision can be done under local anesthesia. Wish you good health! - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Practice safe sex, if you have sex.
