→Misinterpretation of the shock: Wikify.
* [https://alphamom.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/wonderland_circumcision-e1273195287922.jpg alphamom.com: Circumcision: the kindest cut, or the cruelest?]
Infants regularly go into shock during [[circumcision ]] due to the extreme [[pain ]] they cannot escape and from which they cannot defend themselves (because of being restrained by a [[Circumstraint]] or because of being held by adults). This is their only way to turn off pain perception. Visible symptoms are usually very swollen eyelids and puffy faces after the intense screaming before. With some, the apathetic eyes do not close by themselves in shock.
