Circumcision of 3 month old baby
My 11 weeks baby boy needs to undergo circumcision, as prescribed by the pediatric surgeon. When he was 13 days old he had severe UTI, and later findings showed Phimosis. The circumcision procedure requires general anesthesia to given on my baby. We are a bit scared on the use of anesthesia. Can this procedure be done without general anesthesia with something like local anesthesia? My baby is on 1ml once a day dosage of Sporidex (antibiotic)

Consult a Pediatric surgeon, they will decide it based on your baby condition. It is not possible to recommend here, hope you understand it.
