Again, after 4 years, we revisit Dr Razak's clinic to get Ilon's circumcision done. Still not used to seeing our baby getting snipped, we try our best not to cry. Poor fella.
But be rest assured that he was ok. Dr Razak had used a local anaesthesia and the crying was only because in order for the procedure to be done, Ilon’s leg was strapped down so there’s less movement and that was uncomfortable for Ilon who normally prefers lying down on his tummy instead.
Half an hour later, there was some swelling but 3 hours later, it went down.
I just had to ensure I placed the cream (which is actually eye ointment) over his penis over the next couple of days. As predicated by the Dr, the wound healed beautifully. Praise God. No fever, no swelling. No pus. Dr Razak is one the best children surgeon in the country.
To those not familiar, “sunat Khitan” or circumcision is a recommended practice for male Muslims. Those days, the sunat happens when the boy is 6-9 years old and this is so the penis is easier to clean when a bit of the foreskin is removed.
Research shows it’s less traumatic when the circumcision is done from 0-3months old.
Celebrated the win (for all) at Minori Japanese Restaurant at The Royale Chulan Damansara Hotel. Thank you Jess for the birthday treat! The family and I so grateful for the kind gift. xoxo
