Does Circumcision hurt???

Question

Does it really hurt like hell? and for how long? also.....how long till sex after the procedure?

Answer 1

When i was a kid i had to have an operation, and the lad opposite me in the ward had a circumcision and when he was being bought back from theatre i could see him before i could hear him, he was shouting "My knob, my knob" and when i did see him he was clutching his penis and writhing about on the trolley. He didn't shut up for hours.

Answer 2

They will be using an anesthetic so it won't hurt during the procedure, but it will after the drug has worn off. But you will be given analgesics to ease the pain. Probably after two weeks, you can resume your normal activities, provided you don't acquire complications.

Answer 3

Why in the h3ll are there so many females answering questions in the MALE health area? You dont have a penis, therefore you dont have an answer about penis pain, feeling, getting off, playing with it, growth of it, pain of it, feeling of it, etc. Go answer some boob questions. Are there this same amount of males answering questions about a girls first time, or first period, or vaginal pain, etc? Wow, like I always say I wouldnt let a person with no plumbing fix my toilet. Back on topic though, of course it will be sore for a few weeks,it not horribly painful or anything like that, thats all. The benefits are usually worth it though.

Answer 4

Yes, it probably will. Babies and young children who are circumcised do scream, but in time will forget the pain. I guess you would have to stay off sex until the wound heals - maybe 6 - 8 weeks.

Answer 5

NOOO!! They use ANESTHESIA nowadays, so is easy, quick and virtually *painless*



CIRCUMCISION IS VERY BENEFICIAL, its cleaner, healthier and several prestigious research institutions have proved that circumcised men have less risk of contracting STD's such as AIDS-HIV, syphilis or herpes.

Uncircumcised penises are difficult to keep clean, and more prone to infections and penile cancer, studies have shown.
A circumcised penis is naturally clean and virtually free from urinary infections. You will not have to worry again with careful washing of your penis.

Is it NOT true that the AAP (American Academy of Paediatrics) does not recommend circumcision. They simply say they leave the decision to parents. But recently, and specially after the recent studies by the US National Institutes of Health, the AAP has been discussing if it may be necessary to change their policy and recommend circumcision to all newborns as they used to do, so in the future we may see that the AAP advocates circumcision again.

About STD's:

As I said, several studies carried out by prestigious research bodies have proved that uncircumcised penises are more prone to infections and contraction of STD's, including AIDS-HIV. It has been confirmed that circumcised men are up to 70% less likely to be infected than those who are uncircumcised. Have a look at this site: http://www.torontodailynews.com/index.php/HealthNews/2006121404Circumcision

As for women, studies also show that circumcision also protects female partners from AIDS-HIV and other STD's. Browse this article: http://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/Press_releases/2006/02_08_06.html

About sensitivity of a circumcised penis:

NO medical or physiological study has ever shown that circumcision reduces sensitivity, opposed to common belief. It is completely FALSE that circumcision reduces penis sensitivity. The American Academy of Paediatrics (AAP) confirms this on their web site; have a look at: http://www.aap.org/pubed/zzzjzmemh4c.htm

Circumcision is an easy and nowadays *painless* procedure, which has many benefits, and virtually no risks.
Circumcision is NOT an amputation. Circumcision is NOT comparable at all to female circumcision, which is something completely different.

Circumcision rates are INCREASING nowadays, both in the United States and overseas. Many African, Asian and Latin American countries with little circumcision tradition are starting to promote the procedure to help to reduce the AIDS-HIV infection rates.

Finally, this site has a lot of useful and *unbiased* information. Make sure you have a good look: http://www.circinfo.net
