And I'm 24 years old! See the problem?Yes, and it lies within your head. At 24, unless your mom is a nut job, it shouldn't be that big a deal for your mom to know that you are getting a medically-necessary procedure, even if it involves your penis.Would you be mortified to find out that your mom had to undergo a medical procedure involving a "naughty" area of her body?You are both presumably adults.

Do circumcisions hurt?

So what? I got circumcised for exactly the same reason when I was 17.
You mum will love you no matter what.
Have you not got a friend that will help?

I know it seems embarassing to have your parents know. I felt that waytoo but they found out and that was better than trying to keep a secret. they just wanted to know if I was ok/

At the age you had it done, flamingsol, you may have been just about to have your puberty growth spurt.

from what i've heard, it's hurts more then anything else. When we're babies, we'll never really remember, but at this age, it's going to kill. Think of all the nerve endings they're just slicing off. I don't know why anyone would do something like that, at any age.

Wouldn't they use local anaesthetic, at least in a "modern" country?

Did you get a second opinion? Some doctors just love to circumcise for no reason; in your case I would get a second openion on how to correct the situation. Phimosis can be cured by stretching and a doctor to prescribe BETAMETHASONE 0.1% or 0.5% Ointment; then put a little around the tight part only and commence manual stretching. Only get the circumcision if all fails. Good Luck!
