How long does a circumcision surgery usually take and what's the recovery time like? I'm trying to plan when to get it done and want to know how much rest I'll need afterward. Also, how long does the actual procedure last?

Question

I'm thinking about trying out this condom brand called Durex Extra Time. It has benzocaine, I think about 5%, and I've never used it before. I heard it might numb the tip of the penis a bit to help delay ejaculation. Are these kinds of condoms safe to use regularly? Could using them often have any negative effects on my penis or overall health?
