THey usually aren't! Once the procedure is complete, you will probably be wrapped up for a little while.... But the foreskin is fairly useless.... Most people circumcise males because it is easier to keep clean.

Although.... Being uncircumcised makes sex more pleasurable.

What is an overly aggressive circumcision?

when a circumcision is done it is usually done to a child with a foreskin that does not retract. It is easy with something that small to cut of more foreskin then there actually is . this leads to a situation where the remaining skin is pulled up and is tightened over the penis behind the glans leading to painful erections , hair up the shaft of the penis and badly bent erections.

What does circumcision feel like?

Circumcision can be extremely painful, especially in the days following the procedure. It is also extremely painful to get erections for the first few weeks following circumcision. Erections can also rip out the stitches, requiring another surgery. Circumcision caries with it other serious risks of adverse outcomes including prolonged bleeding, infection, and surgical error that can result in damage to the penis. For these reasons most physicians recommend against circumcision. Circumcision can have long lasting consequences. Circumcision removes a normal part of the penis that functions to protect the glans of the penis. Removal of the foreskin can cause decreased sensitivity of the penis and decreased pleasure during sexual intercourse. This is yet another reason why circumcision is becoming increasingly uncommon. Circumcision is far less common now in the United States than it once was. During the 1970s and 1980, around 80% of male infants were circumcised in the United States. A study conducted in the United States from 2005-2007 found that circumcision rates had fallen to below 40% in most of the United States. In the western United States, fewer than 25% of infant males were circumcised in 2005-2007.


What is involved in adult circumcision?

Adult circumcision requires anesthesia, either local or general. The foreskin is then cut off and the remaining edges of the skin are stitched together. The penis is then bandaged. Men may be unable to walk for several days and should wear tight fitting briefs to keep the penis from moving. The procedure can be very painful, especially if erections occur in the days and weeks following surgery.


Is it true that a tight circumcision would yield painful erections?

After the foreskin is removed; the place where it was attached to the penis needs to heal. That area may be sewn together with stitches or covered with plastic. (Sometimes it is left open) During that time, erections are impossible. When the wound is healed and the dressing is removed, nothing stops erections. There is no pain. Have you ever cut yourself? Did you have pain? Did you have pain after the wound healed? Tight circumcisions can however cause the hairy skin at the base of the shaft to be pulled up onto the shaft and this can lead to real discomfort and pain during sex. The penis is meant to have a foreskin so the result of any circumcision is at the least deleterious to the function of the penis overall

Why is circumcision painful?

The foreskin has one of the largest amounts of nerves in the body, and the surgery hurts more if there's no anesthesia.


Is Circumcision not as painful to infants because of their immature nervous systems?

No, circumcision is a painful procedure when done with no analgesia. Traditionally, this is how it is done. However, due to studies that have proven it is a painful process, many doctors are beginning to use local anesthetics or nerve blocks to reduce the pain. If you are considering having the process, do your research first. Ask you doctor questions about the risks and benefits, and see if they provide pain prevention.


Why do some men get painful erections with UTI's?

During erection, the urethra stretches and lengthens. A urethra that is already inflamed by a urinary tract infection (UTI) may become painful during erection and sexual intercourse. UTI's, in and of themselves, rarely cause erections. Unintended erections may occur as a result of hypersensitivity of the penis secondary to inflammation. Because of the capacity of UTI's to produce scarring and other deleterious effects, they should not go untreated. Don't suffer in silence or be embarrassed, seek medical help as soon as possible.
