Why go to a food review channel for this?
Sorry, I think I may have mis-worded the second question. I mean the historical reasons for individual cultures circumcising, not actual responses to circumcision. But the first question’s response- what if you suffer from phimosis? Do I just let it fall off once you’re 14?

Betamethasone cream, tissue expansion, or preputioplasty. Preputioplasty is a geometrical question, and a big enough axial slit is guaranteed to cure the phimosis. The principle of proportionality of treatment makes circumcision unacceptable in such a case.
-
Rhetorical question, but isn’t preputioplasty genital mutilation too?
-
If it were done for no reason, it would be. For curing phimosis, it is the most minimally-invasive surgical solution available. It doesn't removie pieces. That's how surgery is supposed to be: doing as little damage as possible, once non-surgical options are exhausted.
-
It might be minimally invasive but has a far higher risk. You’re no longer cutting loose skin, you’re cutting across the top of the frenulum and urethral artery and if you go wrong it can lead to more nerve damage than circumcision and possibly sepsis. I’m not convinced.
-
You obviously have no clue of the anatomy of the penis.
-
You should probably tell me why, because it seems like I’m right here. A lateral cut along your penis does get dangerously close to the urethral artery. But no need to be upset, if you have a qualification or evidence otherwise, I’m all ears.
-
I gotta be totally frank here, you're talking outta your ass... You just learned preputioplasty exists moments ago but you already think you can declare which is more dangerous or harmful? How about you provide some evidence for a change? Circumcision cuts through veins too
-
Here’s a diagram, here’s the procedure. I know what the surgery is, I had it offered and chose circumcision. I’m being skeptical of the info here. Look at the artery, then the cut. I was told by a real doctor that it had a higher chance of sepsis, which is why I’m repeating it.pic.twitter.com/iGQgDvxhxj

First you try this: https://phimosisjourney.wordpress.com/guide/ And then if it really doesn't work and you're sure you require surgery, you try this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preputioplasty … Amputating the entire foreskin for that is absolutely ridiculous.
