The testimonials on this blog are from real people who (mostly) come from the USA. This blog serves to document common circumcision complications and the prevailing ignorance surrounding this archaic practice. Singly, reports of circumcision harm are dismissed as anecdotal. Collectively, these reports are proof that circumcision damages boys and the men they become. "Intelligence is being able to learn from your mistakes; Wisdom is being able to learn from the mistakes of others."

Regretful mom (Kelsey from Virginia)
"This photo breaks my heart. Photo shoot was right after Jacob's penis was sliced and
diced. You can still see the sugar water dried around his mouth, and the trauma in his eyes.
I have a video of him too where his eyes are shifting in and out in trauma after having it
done. Why do people cut their babies? Why did I listen to all the FALSE bullshit telling me
that my perfect baby boy needed to be put through such immense pain and shock. I at
least took pictures of his whole penis before I sent him away to be forever mutilated. Please
research parents, its a BIG DEAL. Not a little snip that they will just "get over" or "barely
feel". IF you love your kids enough, you will find the time to research and have the heart
to keep your sons intact. DON'T make the mistake I made." -Kelsey Mackey

Ashley from North Carolina
Paraphimosis is a rare condition that occurs in males with a foreskin. Perhaps she is describing
penile adhesions, which is a very common post circumcision
complication. Adhesions are bands of scar tissue that
reattach to the organ.

EMLA cream
Sometimes we hear of a numbing cream that is used to ease
the pain of infant circumcision. Whenever someone tells you their baby received this treatment, consider providing them
with the following information straight from the
manufacturer's insert.
--------------------------------------
EMLA is used to temporarily numb the surface of the skin. It
is used for pain relief on the skin prior to procedures such as
needle insertion and minor skin surgery in adults and
children older than 1 year.
When using EMLA Cream, it should NOT be applied to the following areas:
• cuts, grazes or wounds
• where there is a skin rash or eczema
• in or near the eyes
• inside the nose
• in the ear
• in the mouth
• in the anus (back passage)
• the genitals of children <------ ---------="" style="background-color: #f4cccc; color: red;">------>
