Dear Patient,

It is a little painful to have circumcision without anesthesia but even 3yr and older kids do go through it. A paediatric surgeon is a better person to guide you about the better method of circumcision. Giving the child syrup panadol before and after circumcision is helpful (with a gap if at least four hours). Dip the child waist down in lukewarm water and apply generous amounts of polyfax ointment for quick healing.

Moreover, if you need further help, we recommend checking with a best child specialist in Lahore and seek a piece of in-person advice at https://oladoc.com/pakistan/lahore/child-specialist
