Have you ever pulled nose-hair, and it hurt so bad it made you sneeze and cry at the same time?
I was 48 when I got circumsized. I would have done it at an earlier age but everybody told me it really hurts. I believed them. However, there was no pain at all. I only had to wear a bandage for about 3 days and "Wallah'!!
The first time I had a cystoscope done, I told the nurse "please don't laugh at how little I am". She replied "don't worry, I am used to it". I then felt much more relaxed. For a minute.
Pulling nose hair is a Bad idea, as any doctor will tell you...an abscess caused by the openings created is Damn close to your brain and hard to send antibiotics to that region. Trim, not pull!
