Male circumcision under local anaesthesia Version 3.1 (Dec09) Appendix 3.2 SAMPLE INFORMATION SHEET FOR ADULT AND ADOLESCENT CLIENTS Normal anatomy The head (glans) of the penis is covered by a fold of skin (foreskin).

Scrotum (or bag) containing the testicles Foreskin covering the head of the penis A Glans or head of the penis B Urethral meatus (opening of the urinary passage) should be at the tip of the penis A Normal uncircumcised penis B Normal circumcised penis What is circumcision Circumcision is surgical removal of the foreskin. It is an ancient practice that has its origin in religious and traditional rites. Many parents have their sons circumcised for religious reasons. More and more men are now choosing circumcision for health and hygiene reasons. Who will do the operation A specially-trained member of the circumcision team will do the operation. Is circumcision a painful operation Normally, circumcision is done with a local anaesthetic. This is given by injection through the skin near the base of the penis. Although you will be awake during the operation, you will not feel it being done. When the local anaesthetic wears off after the operation, it is usual to feel some discomfort; this can be reduced by taking pain-relieving tablets. For some clients, it is preferable to do the operation in a hospital or under general anaesthesia, rather than in a clinic.
