According to a comprehensive study, newborn responses to pain are "similar to but greater than those observed in adult subjects" (p. 1326) [2]. Circumcision is overwhelmingly painful and traumatic [3, 4]. Some infants do not cry because they go into traumatic shock from the overwhelming pain of the surgery [5]. No experimental anesthetic has been found to be safe and effective in preventing circumcision pain in infants [3]. Changes in pain response due to newborn circumcision have been demonstrated at six months of age, suggesting lasting neurological effects and a symptom of post-traumatic stress disorder.

the following statement here is false, says my doctor:
No experimental anesthetic has been found to be safe and effective in preventing circumcision pain in infants
