Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
Uncircumcised penis predisposes to certain infections due to poor hygiene and collection of smegma.
It is not necessary to get circumcised provided you can keep yourself clean and wash the area regularly. As such it does not create any problems.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
