Revise text to indicate that the foreskin is part of the penis.
"Male '''circumcision''' (from Latin ''circumcidere'', meaning "to cut around") is the surgical removal of the [[foreskin]] (prepuce) from part of the human [[penis]]. [...] The procedure is most often an elective surgery performed on neonates and children for religious and cultural reasons, but in other cases may be indicated for both therapeutic and prophylactic reasons. It is a treatment option for pathological phimosis, refractory balanoposthitis and chronic urinary tract infections (UTIs); it is contraindicated in cases of certain genital structure abnormalities or poor general health."
