there is a local block they can and do give, but the effectiveness is dubious. They've done studies I'd need to go dig up in which they have found that very often the local block only takes in parts of the penis, not the whole thing, as it is supposed to. Sometimes it doesn't take at all. There's no way of knowing. So you roll the dice.

The anesthesia thing is not really an issue to me, anyway, as the foreskin is a healthy, fully functioning part of the penis that was meant to be there and meant to be left alone.
