Healthmatters Medics urged to ban circumcision as baby boy bleeds to death. Complications. Continuous, Daily Discomfort Circumcised Men Experience. Continuous, Daily Discomfort Circumcised Men Experience There is a circumcision scar on every circumcised penis.
This scar is very sensitive to touch. If you are a circumcised male you can touch the skin behind the scar and then the scar itself and compare. You will notice a striking difference. The scar feels very 'zingy' to the touch as opposed to the area behind it. This is because the scar is actually the inner sexually sensitive foreskin that has been externalised. In addition, the exposed glans is also meant to be internal and is super-sensitive, and is not meant to touch fabric. On an intact penis however, the entire penis is covered in the comfortable tissue that you felt behind the scar.
As you get on with your day to day tasks, all your sexual tissues would remain hidden inside. When this intact penis becomes erect, the foreskin rolls back on its self and reveals the sensitive inner-foreskin on the outer side, as well as the glans. Identifying Damage to an Adult Male's dick.

Excessive removal of skin and mucosa is one of the most common results of neonatal circumcision, yet the true frequency of this injury and its adverse effects on physical and psychological development have never been adequately documented.
