Every village has an idiot, and ours is the one who doesn't believe the human body is able to heal itself without some guy in a white coat cutting on you. Pay no attention. As you can see by the post after yours, there is one more story of success which came from following directions. All of the methods discussed here have been tested, not by sceptical doctors who need peer-reviewed studies in order to guide their decisions, but rather in the field by real people who believe in themselves, much as the American Indians, the Chinese, the Egyptians, and all of the other cultures before us, and long before allopathic medicine was invented very recently. Perhaps you didn't know it, but there are many forms of medicine practiced in the world, and there have been many other forms practiced throughout history. Somehow, people have survived, so they must have done something right, wouldn't you think?
In all of Europe, boys grow up to manhood, intact, and then live out their entire lives without having to resort to having their genitals mutilated. You see, even the allopathic doctors there don't believe in cuttting off foreskins unless they are hopelessly being eaten away by cancer. Only the English and a few screwy royalty have ever resorted to the silly notion that cutting off the best part somehow improves the organ. Such foolish folly. Go on with the suggestions you were given and in no time you'll be fine.
