Child circumcision is done at any age, but it is recommended to circumcise it at an age between one day and 60 days, where the operation is done using local anesthesia or at the age of more than a year, and thus avoiding complete anesthesia of the body, which harms the respiratory system, especially since the child is in a period growth.
