I was also getting regular infections and was advised to do it for better hygiene and to reduce the possibility of infections. Although I am grateful my botched procedure was not serious, I read about two boys who lost their penises in botched circumcisions. Most complications can be managed easily, but long-term issues due to circumcision represent a significant percentage of cases seen by specialists. Evidence also suggests delayed treatment can lead to more serious issues in the future. More serious complications such as necrosis of the penis requiring amputation have also been reported.
