→Topicals woefully inadequate: Wikify pain.
=== Topicals woefully inadequate ===
Rabbi Ariel Asa has performed hundreds of circumcisions. When families request it, he says he puts an anesthetic on the skin, in an effort to reduce some of the [[pain]]. But he admits it's not very effective.
"Due to the fact that ''moyels'' (the people who do the procedure) do it very quickly and the pain that the baby experiences is minimal, I don't think that the overall benefits are gained," he says.
