Parents are wondering whether circumcision is an essential procedure for their child. Some countries are practicing this act and others are not. However, there are some parents who want their sons to be circumcised for religious, social and cultural reasons.
 Following every circumcision, the tip of the penis may seem red or yellowish. If there is a bandage, it should be changed on a regular basis in order to reduce the danger of becoming contaminated. Some says that petroleum jelly should be used in order to remain the bandage from sticking. A plastic ring is usually used instead of a bandage.
