Abstract
Circumcision is the act of cutting to remove the entire foreskin from the penis. The frenulum of the penis can also be cut simultaneously in a procedure called a frenectomy. The word circumcision comes from the Latin circum meaning to twist and caedere meaning to cut (A Firmansyah et al,). The formulation of the problem in this study is to find out how the relationship between the influence of snakehead fish consumption on wound healing after circumcision. The research method used in this scientific paper is the grounded method, through a qualitative approach. The relationship between snakehead fish consumption and circumcision wound healing is because snakehead fish itself has a high protein content, namely albumin in snakehead fish (Nugroho, 2015). The conclusion of this study through direct observation on the sixth day is that the protein content in snakehead fish is higher than in other types of fish, the albumin content of snakehead fish reaches 6.22%.
