After 5 minutes trying to fix the post i cant. We also use a small amount of 2% lidocaine subcutaneously. To my knowledge we always have, not sure about whats being done nationally but i think its physician to physician, we have things called (circ sets) that contain them but i dont think all physicians use the lidocaine.


So your earlier statement that the chil does not feel pain was predicated upon him being locally anaesthesized?

That's like saying that pulling teeth is not painful whilst forgetting to mention "if you breathe some laughing gas".

I'll put that down as a mistake rather than an attempt to deliberately mislead (because from reading other posts from you I think it to be a mistake) but I would like to ask you: to the best of your knowledge, is circumcision painful in the absence of anaesthetic?

If they can then your experience in their "lack of pain" is totally irrelevant.
